Re: Please add support for Broadcom 440x NIC to sarge release



I think it may just be a problem of adding the right PCI ID to sarge.  I had
this problem with a broadcom chip in a laptop, and raised a bug against
debian-installer and they added the ID.  b44 is certainly available as a 
module, it just need to be recognised as the right module for this ID.  So
raise a bug against debian-installer, and include the lspci and lspci -n 
output in the bug and they can easily add the ID.
