Package: debian-installer
Version: 20070407

When installing Etch via NETINST disk on a ThinkPad T23, I have tried 
two approaches:
  * Use built-in e100 Ethernet (eth0)
  * Use orinoco wireless on a PCMCIA card (eth1)

If the Orinoco card is present during NETINST, I get a choice of eth0 or 
eth1.  I can choose eth1 and do the install wirelessly, but then the 
target system fails to handle the card.  Unfortunately I had to erase 
the error messages, but the complaint was that 00000000 was received 
from the card when a nonzero value was expected.  I will be installing 
on another T23 in a few days and could retrieve the error message then.

If I leave the card out of the PCMCIA slot and install using eth0, I can 
then insert the card on the installed system and that then works also.  
It is only if the card is used for installation that it then can't be 
used on the target system.

We are closing this bug report against debian-installer 
for one of the following reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the bug report give the feeling that
  the reported problem was lying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
