   Thanks for the information. The only problem is that I dont have
   any way to boot the system. I have no floppy to boot debian. For
   the install, I booted from the cd. Is there a way to boot to use
   the cd to boot, or make a boot floppy?

A bootable CD-ROM will work the same way a boot floopy does.  Same
command applies.
