Probably of little help, but I saw the same problem occur at an install party recently but on an Intel machine. Turned out the problem was a CD burned when Potato wasn't stable yet or a wrong ISO-image, we never found out. I popped in my copy of stable Potato and it worked.
Did you burn the CD from an ISO-image? --Hans At 03:47 PM 12/30/00 -0500, Dippy Black wrote: >I am trying to install debian 2.2 from the CD on my Imac DV (slotloading). I >burned the CD myself.
