Thanks Ralph! I'm downloading the Beta 4 CDs right now :)
Can you (or anyone else) perhaps also give me a pointer to how I would add drivers or kernel mods that weren't included in the distribution during the installation process?
I'd like to know in case I need to do it in the future (and just for my own edification :) ).

Yup beta 4 does have the e1000 drivers on it. I installed this box with beta 3 and it had them also. But 4 also has them.

After trying to get Debian deployed in a client project for over a year, I've been successfuly in having it approved for use on a 6-server project that we're doing.
But, I've got a problem that I'd like some direction with.
My experience with Debian has basically been that I've had no problem getting the actual distribution up and running -- I simply install from the Sarge ISOs on CD, and then customize what I want or upgrade to Sid in some cases.
But in my first attempt at installing on these boxes, using my Beta 2 Installer, I got an error message that it didn't have drivers for the E1000 gigabit nics on these servers. (I've never used a gigabit nics before with Debian, only with FC and RH).
Here's my question:
a) does Beta 4 have the e1000 drivers?
b) If not, how do I load the e1000 drivers during the install? Or for that matter, how do I load ANY drivers during install that aren't part of the Sarge or Sid distributions?
Thanks for any advice!
Moe
