Quoting Simon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Thanks for that... have downloaded the lastest snapshot and it booted
no issues. Now it wont find the network card. sigh... its a intel
e1000 i think.
Is it easier to just put a new network card in it?
Could be,
An old 3com or something may help, but I would guess that the kernel
should support the e1000 nic.
On a similar desktop machine, (intel board 965 chipset), I had the exact
same problems as you. I eventually gave up and used a usb stick to
install Debian.
A good how to is here:

I would hope that Simon could try this first:
modprobe e1000
It seems that e1000 is compiled as a kernel module, but it probably
wasn't recognized by hotplug on Simon's system.
