You might want to test the Etch Beta1 images which you will find on
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer
thank you. i'll try tonight and let you know whether it worked.
We currently have no guarantee that the Ethernet card will be
detected: I currently can't figure out which PCI ID it may have.
However, a successful install of Ubuntu seems to indicate that the
most recent versions of D-I (on which the Ubuntu installer is based)
might support this hardware.
