Install Package question:
Hi! all, I finally got installation of the
debian/linux 2.1 on my old 486 machine. But I still
have a problem: I could not install the basic package
from the CD(2 CD set). I selected the basic package
and use the access method as fellow: 
1). Multi-CD, It asked me the CD device like: enter
the name of the device [/dev/cdrom]: I entered:
/dev/cdrom, not work. /cdrom, not work. /dev/cdu31a(my
CD driver), not work.
2). apt: did like the instruction. Like change source
list? [Y]. File: /cdrom enter. stable  enter. main
contrib enter. add other packages [N]
Alt F2: mddir /cdrom enter: can not make cdrom: file
exists.
mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/hdc /cdrom enter
the kernel does not reconize the it as block device
(maybe "insmod" device)
Back to dselect menu: Upgrade......
get file: .....
error can not get: /cdrom/...../packages.gz
..........
error staus 1
I tried the two CDs. not work.
I can reach the CD by cd /cdrom command.
debian ~#/cdrom and ls -al the top file.
Could some one help me solve these problems
thank you.
