I want to install via CD-ROM, but the installation says that it's not 
detected.

I do have a WinNT server v3.51 running on a LAN, and I've tried to 
install with that, but I'm such a novice that I'm not sure why all I get 
is timeout.  Can ANYONE HELP???  

The following are some messages that I get while trying to install over 
FTP:

Command 'ifconf ed1 inet 10.1.1.2 netmask 255.0.0.0' returns status of 0
Attempting to open connection
ed1:  device timeout
Network initialized successfully
Attempting to open connection for URL:  ftp: //10.1.1.1/
Using URL 'ftp://10.1.1.1/'
hostname='10.1.1.1'
dir = ''
port # = '21'
Looking up host 10.1.1.1
Logging in as ron
ftp Open(ftp, 10.1.1.1, ron, justice)
Using dotted IP address '10.1.1.1'
ed1: device timout
"
"
Zapping ftp connection on -1 returns -2

Any help would really be appreciated.
