HELP: Problems Installing Cheap*Bytes CD



I am attempting to install Debian onto a 600mb hard drive, which is the
third drive on my system.  I am running Windows 98 on drive C:

A:\   floppy
C:\   hard drive
D:\   secondary
E:\   cd
F:\   tertiary

I boot the pc into DOS mode to run the install.bat file off the CD.

It allows me to partition the hard drive.

However, when I get to the point to install the system I get the following
error:

/floppy/type.txt: Invalid Arguement

I am booting the PC with a minimum autoexec and config.  Just enough to
allow the CD device driver to install.

I am not installing an upgrade. This is a new install of Debian 2.0 onto its
own hard drive.  I plan to use a boot menu, if I ever get this installed.

Please help,

Thanks,

Denis dePierro
