Re: Problems installing
I had a very bad experience with cheapbytes(cheapshit) cdroms of debian
2.1 they were
full of curropted packages. On the other hand i would suggest getting
cds from www.linuxmall.com *I* havent had any bad experiences with them
(yet). Another option is to download the rescue disk and base install
disks from the ftp site to install the kernel/base off the floppy then
try to install the rest from cd.
linuxmall.com has good prices, typically each cd is $2 or $3. not sure
if they have debian 2.2 yet i wouldnt be suprised if it takes another
couple weeks.

I have checked that it is mounted in the other terminal I have also mounted it by hand and used the mounted option. I then point it to . Let it try to find the path it pulls up a path that looks good and then grinds away for a bit then asks for a rescue floppy :) I've tried several different paths and have double checked that the CD is mounted. That is as far as I got before I fell asleep :). Any ideas hints pointers? Thanks all very much.
