Comments/Problems:
Booting with the 2.4 kernel failed.
The first install attempt was by booting the 2.4 kernel from CD. After
selecting Country and Language, the installer hung at "Loading module
'sd_mod' for SCSI disk support..." (I do have a 120GB SATA disk which I
will use for another install later).
Booting with linux26 succeeded and correctly gave three ethernet interfaces:
eth0: NVidia Corp nForce2
eth1: Galileo Tech Ltd. Yukon Gigabit Ethernet
eth2: Firewire ethernet
Partition table was manually edited to re-use the partitions from a
previous Debian install.
Selected "Desktop" in 2nd stage and got working video (ATI Radeon 9600
Pro) and working sound, too.
