Yeah the auto detection of any hardware that wasn't supported in 2.6.8
doesn't work yet.  But at least you can manually load drivers and then
continue with a working install.

Any normal sarge CD will have 2.6.8 kernel.  You would have to grab the
kernel package from unstable to get 2.6.12, or find a backport of the
kernel package.  Or of course you could build your own (the
linux-source-2.6.12 package should be a good start from unstable).

I don't think there are full cd images of testing or sarge made at this
time.
