Mounting CD during installation on a G4 w/ DVD-RAM

[Yannick Cayer <cayery@psi.ca>]

Greetings,

I'm trying to install Debian (potato) on a G4 (with a DVD-RAM)

I was able to boot from the cd rom, partition the hd, do whatever I
needed to do up the the install point where it asked me for the media I
wanted to install from: I chose CD but it failed to mount my cd.

I really don't understand why since it was able to boot from it.

Do I need to do something special on order to install from the CD-ROM
using the setup I have?
