-                  Welcome to Debian GNU/Linux 2.2!
-
-This is the Debian Install CD. Keep it once you have installed your
-system, as you can boot from it to repair the system on your hard disk if
-that ever becomes necessary.
-
-In order to proceed, you must tell the SILO bootloader the CDROM type. Press
-either 'I' (for IDE CDROM drives) or 'S' (for SCSI CDROM drives) below. If
-neither of these works, then you will need to type in the full name of the
-actual device. Pressing 'O' will give you more info on device naming.
-
-WARNING: You should completely back up all of your hard disks before
-  proceeding. The installation procedure can completely and irreversibly
-  erase them! If you haven't made backups yet, remove the rescue CD from
-  the drive and press L1-A to get back to the OpenBoot prompt.
-
-Debian GNU/Linux comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, to the extent permitted
-by applicable law.
-
-[ S - SCSI ]  [ I - IDE ]  [ O - OTHER ] -- This CD uses Linux 2.2.15
