I'm sure this has been covered before but I can't find it in the

I've a Debian box (2.6, unstable) connected to the Internet via USB
Broadband modem (I'm in the UK). ie it's nto a router/modem but the mobo
does have a network port.
I've another box on which I wish to install Debian (again 2.6). I tried
to use a netinst CD on this box but it hangs (with no indication of what
is happening) after probing hardware. I guess this is when it's trying
to detect a network (but why doesn't it fail then offer me to skip this
step?); this happens with both linux26 and expert26 boot options.
Suggestions on how to progress this (without writing numerous CDs!) most
welcome...
Thanks, Michael
It shouldn't be the network. netinst images do not require a network
connection before initial boot. bizcard images however do.
I believe there already are testing ISOs... They currently probably are
very unstable, but you may be in luck.
