Package: debian-installer
Severity: important

On an 800 MHz Powerbook, the Airport card is correctly detected and
initialized when booting from the install CD.  However, when rebooting
from the hard disk to continue the installation, network setup fails:

    Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) :
        SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not supported.
    Error for wireless request "Set Encode" (8B2A) :
        SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not supported.
    Error for wireless request "Set ESSID" (8B1A) :
        SET failed on device eth1 ; Operation not supported.

The cause of this is that after rebooting, the copper ethernet device is
no longer recognized as eth0.  The wireless is now eth0 instead of eth1.
Editing /etc/network/interfaces allows installation to proceed.
