Greetings,
The problem has been solved. After noticing
that the resulting burned CD-RW was readable and bootable on other PCs, and
after comparing the boot blocks of both the burned and purchased CDs were very
similar, Janet (my wife) suggested that the CDROM drive (of the PC on which I
wanted to install Debian) might be too old to recognize the burned CD-RW. She
was exactly right. The drive was replaced with a new one, the PC booted from the
new Debian CD-RW, and Debian has now been installed. So there is some difference
in readability between the purchased and burned CDs (format?).
Thanks to everyone for their
suggestions.
Now I'll move on to setting up the Stealth64
VRAM video card!
