Please don't use these images, we are not currently making weekly builds
of the installer DVDs. The image you tried was built last may, and is
actually older than the released images for Debian 4.0.

If you want to install testing, please use a daily built netinst or
other daily built image.

The DVD you downloaded contains the 2.6.18 kernel.

We do include the 2.6.21 kernel and the atl1 driver on current daily
built images. We had not quite gotten to the point of including the arl1
driver in the installer, but I have pushed that along somewhat, and it's
now just waiting on the updated packages getting into the archive,
hopefully in the next few days. You should get a mail about this bug
being closed once that happens.

Assuming you waited a few minutes at this point, you seem to have
encountered a known bug that is happily fixed in both Debian 4.0r1 and
in testing.
