After installing without using a net connection, a simple "modprobe e1000e" and "dhclient" made the net connection work. The following were added automaticly to /etc/modules by the installation: e100 e1000 e1000e But booting with these in /etc/modules did not make the network interface work. Had to do "modprobe e1000e" manually after each boot. It was hard to see that I probably could have asked for a command prompt during the installation and done the modprobe while installing. Installing all the packages later is a pain in the ass, not knowing which ones are part of the base system. I also did not find any way to continue the unsuccessful netinst from where I left off, had to start over and repartition everything. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
