I tried again with the netinst image of 20060309, and it worked
correctly. I did wait a little longer than I did under this bug report,
but I'm not totally certain how impatient I was that night when the
manual wasn't working.

If you want me to probe more deeply, I could, but I'm satisfied now
given that it worked with a later netinst image.
