Comments/Problems:
Installer could not detect my ethernet card, a "Marvell Yukon 88E8053 PCI-E
Gigabit Ethernet Controller" card. There are Linux drivers available for
this card, found at
http://www.marvell.com/drivers/driverDisplay.do?dId=107&pId=10. Ubuntu
Breezy 5.10 installer identified this card without a hitch. It can't
possibly be difficult to include; please add support for this ethernet card;
new computer just isn't the same without my Debian! Thanks!
