If your motherboard supports udma100 directly then you might want to try
installing with cd #4 or use the udma66 boot disk (floppy).
http://www.debian.org/releases/2.2/i386/ch-rescue-boot.en.html#s-install-cd
Hopefully that will get you installed and from there you can upgrade
(compile udma100 support into kernel) your system to udma100.

If you have a promise card, attach your hard drive directly to the
motherboard, install and then compile support into your kernel for
udma100, change your /etc/fstab to reflect the change, put the promise card in 
and reboot.  The link below gives information on upgrading to kernel
2.4.x.
