Did you manage to install the base system already? Did you use a floppy for that? Does dselect start normally? If the base system is there and it starts normally and you have a more or less standard debian cd-rom, please try to start dselect (while as root or su) and follow the instructions. You need to find out your cdrom connection. It should be something like /dev/hdx, where x is for example d as in my case. You can mount cdrom before running dselect, but that is not necessary. If you use dpkg -i -command to install dpkg packages you need to mount cdrom beforehand. I do that for example this way: mount /dev/hdd /mnt Did you remember to use dselect and/or mount command as root? [EMAIL PROTECTED]
