Same problem here, with Realtek RTL8168C/8111C ethernet adapter. System is ASUS X56T laptop with 4 GB RAM and Turion ZM82 CPU. Kernel boot parameters are noapic, nolapic, and acpi=ht; otherwise it will not boot.
Vanilla Hardy install (original 8.04 CD) --> works Hardy with all updates --> still works Hardy upgrade to Intrepid with update-manager -d --> ceases to work after reboot with new system Intrepid beta CD install --> does not work The network card does not get an IP address via DHCP. Manually assigning one does not help. No address in the same network (e.g. computer 192.168.2.16, gateway 192.168.2.1, netmask 255.255.255.0) can be pinged. Already reported in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212497, but bug is closed and reported as fixed. The problem persists however. If you need any logs please say so, as I am not very experienced in reporting bugs, and, as I cannot work on the broken installation (no network and no graphics), I'll have to reboot to that partition to check.
