I tried then to configure manually and it hang on couldn't find a mirror of packages, in another words actually the connection couldn't be make. I'm not really sure but it is possible the installer I use (Kubuntu Flight-2 iso CD installer from Europe mirror) not to have in its kernel the module sk98lin compilation? I remember for while ago I tried Breezy when was still in development release candidate, and I end up in the same trouble: couldn't install it because dhcp configuration failed. After on I installed the final Ubuntu 5.10 and it regonized both ethernet cards. I tried also Live CD Flight-2 but it didn't even load the kernel modules at boot time.(that could be another bug). Note: Marvell Yukon Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Base-T Adapter - eth1 - sk98lin module in kernel - which is connected to an adsl modem to the internet- is actually a ethernet card onboard : ASUS P5GD1. the other one -intranet: Intel(R) PRO/100 - eth0 - e100 module in kernel - which is connectected to my small home network -is just a PCI card installed after. For sure there is another option that I'll try later to exhange the connections (the card onboard to the intranet and the PCI one to the DSL modem) but I'm not really sure that could be common solution for any of users who may try install this distro.
