Comments/Problems:
During the initial setup, the pcmcia wireless card was correctly configured.
After each reboot, I have to perform a
ifdown eth0
then a
ifup eth0
in order to connect to my network.
(Same trouble as installation reports 241790)
(Note : the pcmcia wireless card is the only network card of this computer).
