Comments/Problems:

The VIA VT8251 appears not to be *fully* supported until 2.6.20, and is
mostly working on 2.6.18. [1]  Kernels are one thing for which i think
Debian needs to make an exception to the rule of "no updates unless
something's broken".  If you can't install Debian on the latest hardware
- it is broken.  There are lots of PGA775 motherboards out there that
require 2.6.20 to work fully - it needs to be supported in etch somehow.

I'm sorry, but that is not a decision for the installer team, but for the 
kernel team, but the kernel for Etch is frozen now.
Unfortunately there will always be hardware that is not supported by a 
release kernel. We'll make installation images for lenny based on newer 
kernels available as soon as possible after etch has been released.

Closing this report as this is not an issue we can fix.

Cheers,
FJP
