First go to the Debian site and look at the documentation,

http://www.debian.org/releases/slink/

You can find the install instructions for Intel x86 architecture here,

http://www.debian.org/releases/slink/i386/install

I have the Cheap*Bytes Slink CD set.  The files you are looking for can
be found in disk #1 here,

dists/slink/main/disks-i386/2.1.8-1999-02-22
