 Yes, see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=626220 and
 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=624794.

 You could consider using the backported debian installer from
 http://kmuto.jp/debian/d-i/ (I have never tried it, so I can not recommend
 it as such, only say that it could solve your problem), or installing
 testing (wheezy) or even unstable (sid) instead of stable.

This kind of problem is when a USB-ethernet plug-in device is
priceless. (And less than $30, retail). The amount of time I've saved
on various hardware and OS combinations by using an older such device
until the installation kernel is loaded well justifies keeping one in
my toolkit and keeping it in my DHCP reservation tables for just such
installations.

Debian6 netinstall CD cannot find Ethernet card on ThinkPad T420s.

2011-08-02 Thread Sam Bell
Dear All

I love Debian so much, it is simple and steady.

But I need you help now.

*Debian 6 amd64 netinstall CD cannot find ethernet card on my ThinkPad
T420s, my ethernet card is Intel® 82579LM Gigabit Ethernet card.

I also downloaded a DVD and try to install Debian6 on my laptop, the problem
is the same.*

Anyone can help me? I am really so urgent about it and cannot sleep well.

Best regard and thanks

ZHONG SHENG
