installing Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 on Thinkpad 380

[Nicolas Renet <renet@ti.ens-fcl.fr>]

I'm trying to install the ufficial release 2.1 (4 CD's) of Debian
GNU/Linux on my IBM Thinkpad 380, without success : the installation
program begins with loading the kernel (loading root.bin.... loading
linux....) but after a few seconds causes the computer to reboot... and
restarting the installation program... ecc.
I've tryed all the methods (ramdisk, floppy, CDrom) and boot parameters,
but I don't find any solution.

	Help !
