Non-ATAPI-CDROM ??



Hi, there !

I am just trying to install Debian 2.0(.34) on my 486/50.

Other components are:
8 MB RAM
SVGA 1 MB
WD 210 MB
Conner 210 MB
Soundblaster 1.5
ser. Mouse
The CDROM (in Windows a "MITSUMI newer single speed") is connected to an
extra Controller
(only one connector, looks like ATAPI, (E)ISA, CINCH-connectors at the
rear).

I have tried to install Debian from the Rescue Disk. When prompted where
from to install the KERNEL,
I tried all CDROM-Connections (first on primary  to second on fourth),
but all attempts have failed
(not correctly mounted) although the Debian CD was inside of the drive
(!).
Then, using the "DRV1440.bin" that I had copied with Rawrite 2.0 onto a
3.5" 1.44 MB - Disk,
I tried it with the "Proprietary CDROM" - option. But the following
happened: First a short check of the
floppy, then the question whether I liked COLOR or NOT to install
Debian. Answering anything gets me
back to the question "NEXT = installing KERNEL ..." - and so on !!

HELP !!
