[iyonix-support] Help with Linux Installation on an Iyonix

I am stuck trying to install debian. I have RO 5.13, with the standard
(original) video card. I fitted a 60GB hddrive, and with !HForm made a
2GB ADFS bit, and copied these into it:

Dir. ADFS::HardDisc6.$ 
!dInstall    D/WR    Directory 13:25:10 26-Feb-2004 2048  bytes
!dRun        D/WR    Directory 22:13:01 09-Aug-2003 2048  bytes
!LinLoader   D/WR    Directory 22:13:01 09-Aug-2003 2048  bytes
zImage       WR/     Data      01:19:59 04-Dec-2014 1379 Kbytes

Running !dInstall I went through most of the procedure.

The partition table reads:
/dev/hdd1  -- not mounted--  ADFS
/dev/hdd3  swap              Linux swap (ARM Linux)
/dev/hdd4  /target           Linux ext2 (ARM Linux)
/dev/hda1  -- not mounted--  ADFS
/dev/hdb1  -- not mounted--  ADFS

BUT when I got to 'Please select the medium you will use to install
the system'. What's the correct option if I'm not using a CD?

I first chose Hard disc, but 'No ext2, minix, msdos, affs, hfs
partitions that had not already been mounted were detected.'

Choosing 'mounted' led to
Select partition, '/target: dev/hdd4'
Select Debian archive: 'list'
'File Not Found. The installation program couldn't find any dirctory
containing the file rescue  .bin, iyonix drivers.tgz.'
