You should use the report form that is on the installer page to report this. I had same problem and thought they had fixed it in the most recent version. I think it has an "auto" for eth0 which it cannot find and then bails permanently of setting up the networking even though it finds the card later. I find the auto hardware detect is nice, but has rough edges and if a modprobe fails, it tends to lock the installer in my experience.

New sarge installer casues problems on laptops
I just installed sarge using the new installer last week. There is a problem: for some reason the startup scripts are in the wrong sequence, so that the system attempts to configure the network before the PCMCIA card manager, so that eth0 isn't found. I can more or less get around this by manually typing dhclient after startup but... Also perhaps related: I am sure that before (running sarge, but gradually upgraded from woody install nearly a year ago) when I unsuspended the machine from apm -s, the network came back up (assuming I was still attached to the same physical net). This no longer happens and after an unsuspend the network is totally hooped and I have to reboot. So: a) whoever's in charge of the installer, the sequencing of startup scripts need to be fixed and b) can anyone suggest a way to stop the network before a suspecnd so that I can restart afterwards reliably? -- |Deryk Barker, Computer Science Dept. | Music does not have to be understood| |Camosun College, Victoria, BC, Canada| It has to be listened to. | |email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | |phone: +1 250 370 4452 | Hermann Scherchen. | -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
