Package: debian-installer Version: wheezy-installer Severity: Normal I'm trying to PXE-boot using the netboot.tar.gz at http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/20130528-00:06/netboot/netboot.tar.gz on a Dell Poweredge 2650 with serial console redrection.
I'm having the following issues: 1. On the serial console, the debian installer displays as a blank grey screen. I can't see the options. On a VGA screen plugged into the system I see the screen correctly. 2. This system uses broadcom NICs that need firmware. I put the firmware onto a FAT-formatted USB stick, but the machine does not recognise the stick when plugged in. lsmod on the console does not show usb_storage in the list of loaded modules after a failed attempt.
