After network detection failed, please switch to VT2 (on a PC this is alt-F2; I guess option-F2 or something similar on Macs) and enter the following command: lspci -nn | grep Ethernet We need the PCI Id of that device, which looks like [xxxx:xxxx]. > Since this is a netinstall and the network can't be initialized, I > couldn't proceed beyond this point. This is not true. Netinst CDs contain the full base system, so you can complete an installation without a network card. You would end up with a fairly minimal, but completely functioning system.
