Well, no, it's been quite some time since I installed Debian;
however,
what version of the distrib. is on your CD-ROM?  Debian is currently
at 1.3.1, and there several people in Oz offering the official 2-CD
set ("official" means CD distributors didn't just mirror ftp archive
one night with whatever inconsistencies there were).  1.3 CD is
bootable if your mb supports it or if you have a DOS/Win partition.

If the bootdisk image doesn't work for you, try ftp'ing a more
recent one from eg sunsite.anu.edu.au.

Also, there's a debian-user mailing list -- I suggest you post
your question there.  Go to http://www.debian.org[.au] and follow
the links.  Oh, and there's an IRC channel, too, coordinates are
somwhere in the list archives (also accessible via www.debian.org).
