Bummer ... my cd-rom wasn't mounted correctly.


Installation of debian has hit a snag at "Install Kernel and Driver Modules" stage.

When I select cdrom as my medium I get:

"The cdrom was not mounted successfully."


I'm kinda stuck here.

(Note: I booted with a rescue and root floppy ... I'm trying to do the rest off cd 1.)

Maybe instead of going straight to the cd, I should take a brief detour back to floppy-land and get loadlin.exe and install.bat?

A timely question:

How do I exit bootstrap without completing the installation?
