This may be related to bug #497299, but there is some doubt in my mine.
For one thing, I have
$ cat /etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
Also, there seem to be problems specific to the display driver. In
several Xorg.n.log files I see
(II) Loading extension DRI2
(II) LoadModule: "viafb"
(WW) Warning, couldn't open module viafb
(II) UnloadModule: "viafb"
(EE) Failed to load module "viafb" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) No drivers available.
There are several Xorg.n.log* files showing this termination.
On the other hand, when startup is successful, I see, using "lspci -k":
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. K8M800/K8N800/K8N800A
[S3 UniChrome Pro] (rev 01)
Kernel driver in use: viafb
Kernel modules: viafb
Also, when I start up successfully, there is no mention of viafb in the
Xorg.0.log file.
On my most recent attempt, I booted successfully.
I've appended the Xorg logs, showing both successful and unsuccessful
starts.
There are further attachments ...
