Any suggestion ?
You are probably hitting the other bug a few people have hit that some gigabit ports are slow to come up and the network detection code is much too impatient to wait for the link to be ready. I remember a number of people reporting this a few months ago. Other than retrying the network detection step (which I guess preseed can't do), I don't know a workaround. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
