Hi everyone,

I've been lurking on this list for ages and you seem a very friendly
bunch <grin>, so I hope someone can help me with what is obviously
a very newbie question.
I am loading Debian 1.3.1 for the first time, and I get:

"Insert the CD_ROM and enter the block device name []:  
 Can 
someone tell me what it wants to know?   What did I do wrong?

TIA

Beth
