Don't know but if its hot-off-the-press, remember that Etch isn't. By the time Stable becomes Stable (as Etch did a year ago), it doesn't take long before bleeding edge hardware requries a newer kernel. Therefore, you may find that the Etch installer doesn't detect everything and you'll need either Lenny or Sid. Suggestion: burn the netinst.iso for Etch and try booting it on the box. Go to a shell and look at the dmesg and check syslog for errors. Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
