The install fails upon network card detection -- (Zonet) Realtek 8185 (L) -- With this wireless card removed the install completes. I tried installing the wireless card (Zonet) after a sucessful install without it in place only to have it hang on re-boot after it was put back into the system! (the appropriate? modules were loaded prior to trying, rtl818x). I tried to fix the system by installing a newer kernel (2.6.30) from lenny-backports -- This also Failed to work with the Zonet/Realtek 8185 wireless network card. No Joy. (FYI -- ubuntu 9.10 also FAILED to Install with this network card in place.) ------------------------------------------------------ This message was sent using BOO.net's Webmail. http://www.boo.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
