The awful thing is that I got this message _only_ from the "Official"
Debian 1.3 Binary CD (from cheapbytes), that worked before with
another drive, and I can read this CD without errors under DOS or
Win95.

Yes. There are some files on the CD, which cannot be read by the
system, but I only have the errors when I try 'ls -l' the mounted CD.
e.g. I cannot read a symbolic link stable -> bo, so I even cannot
install any package with dselect.

OK I'll try it.
