Comments/Problems:
I'm trying to installing the Debian Lenny AMD64 netinst on an Asus
A8V-MX motherboard with an integrated Realtek RTL8201CL 10/100
ethernet controller. The Debian installer is able to detect the
network device but it is unable to configure the network. I have tried
DHCP, DHCP with hostname, and manual configuration, providing a fixed
IP address, network mask, etc. Nothing works. I was able to complete
the minimal install without IP access. I also tried using a Linux
driver for the Realtek controller that was provided on a CD by the
motherboard manufacturer. I copied the driver to
/usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/ and rebooted but this did not solve the
problem.

For your information:

With '-done' in the bug's E-mail address, as in this E-mail,
gets the bugreport actually closed.


Something else:
