http://faculty.acu.edu/~westk/optiplex320-debian.txt is the best remembrance I have of the ordeal. If that doesn't have the detail you need, the best I might offer is guesses, because I just don't remember any more. (I only set up the box to see if it could be done after one of my professor/customers complained that he could not install Linux on his Optiplex 320; then the machine was repurposed for other things.)
