I was attempting to install Debian on a NEC VErsa 5080x laptop. I used the 3 floppy netinstaller.
I seemed to boot fine. It asked me the language I would like to use and I selected "English" It then asked me to select my network card. I chose xirc2ps_cs. It continued downloading things from the net and got 96% of the way through downloading the installation components from the net when it hung, while performing a usb-discover. The laptop does have USB support, but the netinstall floppies hung at the same place whether it was enabled or not. I have attached an inventory of the laptop to this email. If you have additional questions please let me know.. -- .................................................................
