Thanks - further info as requested given below.
Shall try to test daily build for the firewire/CD over the weekend.

MAIN PROBLEM: wifi (Prism2) nicely detected, install goes fine till main
reboot. On reboot, no wifi network. REASON:
* /etc/network/interfaces was written accurately, but with eth1 as wifi
interface name
* on reboot, the interface is called wlan0_rename
A hand edit of /etc/network/interfaces cured the problem - but not many
"ordinary" users would be capable of diagnosing or curing this.
Could you send us the following files:
/proc/net/dev
/etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules
And the output of ifconfig
As requested:
~$ cat /proc/net/dev
