Comments/Problems:

The RC3 correctly configures the network card (module sk98lin ?!)

But the May, 08th 2005 snapshot gives me this error:

"An installation step failed. You can try to run the failing

step again from the menu, or skip it and choose something else.

The failing step is: Detect Network hardware"

In the ALT-F4 console:

main-menu(393): process(4730): sysfs-update-devnames: not found

main-menu(393): WARNING **: Configuring ‘ethdetect’ failed with error code 127

main-menu(393): WARNING **: Menu item ‘ethdetect’ failed.

Hope this helps… if you need more info, pls sned private email,

as I don’t follow the bug list (if any).

Best Regards.
