Quoting Kent West ([email protected]):
Won't recognize the Broadcom BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe device (although
lspci does). I found this bug:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=574888
which indicates the problem will be fixed when the installer uses the
linux-2.6.32-11 kernel. I don't know how to find an installer that uses this
kernel, so in the meanwhile, I have a totally useless brand new computer. Any
help?
(July 1st)
Please try using a *daily build* from
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer and choose the *netboot*
image (not netinst).
Thank you for the response.
I put a PCI NIC in the box temporarily, just long enough to get around
the installation and to the point where I could get the built-in
BCM57780 working (albeit I still have to manually tweak the boot process
every time I boot to get it to work (rmmod tg3; modprobe broadcom;
modprobe tg3; ifup eth0).
