cdrom installation not starting



I've just gotten an old Aptiva with W95 on it. Even though I set the bios to booting from cdrom it won't. Am using the Woody mini-iso. Windoz is able to read the cd so am trying to follow the docs.

Booting from a W95 startup floppy with cdrom support I got as far as

G:\install\boot.bat

get an immediate msg "bad command or file name" followed by the 4 booter install options. I choose [4] the vanilla one and get "bad command or file name" as a response.

The computer doesn't seem hosed, since it runs w95 ok. How do I get the Debian install to start for me?

Thanks in advance,

Marty
