Let me preface this by saying I might have screwed this up by myself...
After installing debian-1.3, I find that the PATH is not very complete.
After is quick look, it lacks the paths for games (/usr/games/) and
mh programs (/usr/bin/mh/).
Aren't these packages supposed to add their path to /et

This is just a guess, but are you running debian 1.2?
look in your /etc/ld.so.conf, check if there is a line in it, such as
/usr/X11R6/lib
this tells the dynamic linker to look in that directory for shared libs,
i.e the xpm library you need.

Try making a 1.3 rescue disk and booting it with the fdomain parameters.
If you watch the screen (fast) during boot, you should see whether it got
the scsi controller OK or not. If that works, then it's just a matter of
configuring the kernel and LILO on your system.
