Sorry, allright the issue is closed or rather solved. I instellaed it via the cd standard installation. Like I said, that worked. Allthough I do get a error message in the upper Panle that there is no network connection. ??????? Whatsoever that means. I guess its the cable! I don't know where I got it from but it's not 4 Twisted-Pairs of wire. Its just two or 1 and a half. Weired. But it works . . . Thanks for the help so far . . .
Greetings Philipp -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello there, I was trying to install Debian etch on an "older" (2003/ AMD Athlon 1700 + System. But the installer was unable to correctly detect or rather install the correct driver for my network card. It's an OnBoard chip on an AsRock K7VT2 Board using a VIA KT266A Chipset. The installer requests a Floppy with the driver. Oh, by the way: The driver has a download size of 3,05MB. Other Distros like Ubuntu 7.04 do correctly detect it. But I want to use Debian. So is there any way to fix this? Easily? Greetings Philipp ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some more detailed information: Installing Etch in as virtual machine using virtualbox I faced no error. I used the standard installer (textmode). On this AMD-System I tried expert-mode, expertgui-mode, installgui-mode with the mentioned result. Installing as usual the Installer was able to determine and set up my Network Card. Sounds like a problem with the installer?
