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.
