README for Debian 2.1 CD installation (Alpha architecture).
==========================================================
To boot the installation system from CD, you will need the instructions
in /dists/stable/main/disks-alpha/README, then insert CD#1 in your CD-ROM drive
and boot.
CD#1 contains milos and kernels for all architectures supported by Linux.
If your system will not boot from CD:
- Make boot floppies from the images on the first CD, in the directory
\dists\stable\main\disks-alpha\current.
From a Unix (including Linux) system use:
dd bs=18k if=/dists/stable/main/disks-alpha/current/xxx/resc1440.bin of=<flo
ppydevice>
dd bs=18k if=/dists/stable/main/disks-alpha/current/root1440.bin of=<floppyd
evice>
From a DOS system, the program rawrite2.exe will also write the floppy images. e.g.
d: (change to the CD drive)
cd \dists\stable\main\disks-alpha\current
rawrite2 -f resc1440.bin -d a: (a: is the 1.44 MB floppy drive)
See /install/install.txt for more information, and /README.multicd for
last-minute information about the multi-cd installation method.
