It sounds to me like your kernel is crashing. This could be due to a hardware problem, or possibly even a kernel problem. First, try skipping that step. I belive it should be optional and you should be able to get through the rest of the install without doing it. If that doesn't help, you might try installing with a newer kernel. You can get boot disks built with the 2.2.12 kernel here: http://www.debian.org/~joeyh/stable-update/ I'm afraid the files are lost in this huge directory listing, if you can't pick them out, mail me privately. -- see shy jo
