PLIP, debian installation



Hi all,

I'm attempting to install debian on a laptop using a plip connection to a 
desktop machine which has a debian cdrom iso file mounted on /cdrom. 

when trying to ping from the desktop machine to the laptop the laptops 
console shows the error:

plip0: transmit timeout(1,80)

until i cancel ping. does anyone know why this is happening?

also, once the connection is working how do i mount /cdrom to /cdrom on the 
laptop?


William
