please help with installation

[Fer'had Erdogan]

I’m new to Debian and to Linux. I’m trying to get it going on my a machine but I’m stuck. When it says “installing base system – please wait” (after configuring network) it starts writing some files in and gives an error message **debootstrap exited with an error (return value 1)** .. Can anyone help? What do I do?   Hadski
