 Hi.

 I'm netinstalling Debian Sarge from a minimal CD.  I boot the CD

 following list of kernel modules: aztcd, cdu31a, cm206, gscd,
 isp16, mcd, mcdx, optcd, sbpcd, sjcd, sonycd535.

 Which may I choose?  I suspect that none of the above because my
 drive is CD-RW.

These kernel modules are not for your drive, they're for old 
interfaces that a drive may be attached to. If your drive is simply 
attached to the IDE on your mainboard as is usually the case, then 
you need none of the above modules, but you do need the other CD 
related drivers, and ide-scsi and related modules if you want to 
burn CDs as well as read them.

If your CD drive is connected to an old soundcard or other 
multimedia card, you should find out its type and select the 
appropriate driver from the list.

HTH,

Please help.  TIA.
