Certainly. The businesscard image has 3.0.0-2-486 and it is 3.1.0-1-486 now. I generally delete old images in a quest for tidiness but happen still to have netinst ones for 21st and 24th Nov. Both have kernels 3.1.0-1-486. The first one gives a working DHCP setup; the second one doesn't. Normally, I assume something going wrong is due to my misunderstandings, but I'm intrigued as to what is going on here. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
