    Hi,

    I burned a netinst image to a cd in order to install Debian on my
    system. It got to "Detecting hardware to find CD Drives" and the
    progress bar would never pass 2%. Under the progress bar it reads "
    Loading module 'ohci1394' for 'Texas Instruments TSB43AB21
    IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller'..."

    My computer:
    Sager Midern Laptop
    Pentium 4 w/ HT at 3.06 GHz
    RAM 512 mb
    Hard drive is partitioned into 20 Gb Halves.

    I have let it sit for days and it would never make any progress.

    Thanks for your help,
    Ryan
