iconnect installer support
Hi,
I have setup a page about the iomega connect, to install debian on it.
http://www.kroonen.eu/wiki
I can get almost everything to work only the installer is not so nice.
I'm using the installer of openrd and
the problem is when detecting the networkcard everything works, but it
forces itself to 1gb fixed.
So you need to install debian on the iomega iconnect and 1gb switch.
here the output
iconnect:~# ethtool eth0

iconnect:~# dmesg
Linux version 2.6.32.21 (kelly@speedy) (gcc version 4.4.3 (Sourcery G++

net eth1: port 0 with MAC address 00:50:43:5a:1a:2d
eth0: link up, 1000 Mb/s, full duplex, flow control disabled
Now I hope that there are people who can solve this, because when I run
my custom kernel, the driver of the lan works as expected, so also 100mb
auto etc

Could this be a problem with the 2.6.32 driver of the installer?
I also want to have an extra driver, how can I do that (I want an usb
to lan Pegausus II) to be added to the installer. How can I do that?
regards Richard
