Start PC Card services? The message is shown again during "Detect network hardware". As this is a desktop with no PCMCIA support, this message should not be shown. DHCP fails ========== On this image, DHCP is broken. The progress bar goes to 100% fairly quickly and then I get a message that DHCP has failed. Retrying does not help. AFAICT the module for my network card was loaded correctly. DHCP has always worked for me with all previous images I tested. I ran Beta 4 immediately after this install, and for that install DHCP worked perfectly, so the problem is not in my network or DHCP server. netcfg is version 0.63 on this image. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
