I've installed Debian on a similar computer (without a CD-ROM drive) and along the way had to deal with the error message you're seeing. I carefully documented everything... http://www.lafn.org/~cymbala/Debian/t4700ct.html and http://www.lafn.org/~cymbala/Debian/t4700ct.html#install In particular, check-out this part: "Here's another way to boot from Rescue Disk that worked with BIOS version 2.70" My best tip is this: Check your BIOS version. The computer I had was given to me with BIOS 2.70 and it needed to be upgraded to 5.0 (big leap). Upgrading the BIOS made the Debian disks work a lot better!
