CDROM source not found when Installing Kernel
I am trying to install Debian 3.0 r1 from the 7 CD set which I just
purchased on a Dell Inspiron 300m laptop. The PC boots from the first
CD and I get as far as partitioning my drive. When I try to "Install
Kernel and Driver Modules", the CDROM does not appear in the source
list, only floopy, hard disk, mounted partitions, options etc appear.
I tried to exit to a shell and mount the cdrom but was unsuccessful
trying with source device = /dev/hdc1 as well as other devices. The
cd drive is a combination CDR and DVD reader.
Can anyone offer advice on how to point to the source CDROM on my
Dell laptop?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Lanny Lampl
