Re: Installing Debian???
I'm going to take a stab at this, but by no means am I an expert on the
subject - so take this as just a suggestion:
I've installed Debian on three machines now - all with different CD drives.
I've selected the generic CDROM drivers in each case, and haven't had a
problem yet. Have you tried those? They may not be optimal, but they may get
you going.
