Comments/Problems:

Won't recognize the Broadcom BCM57780 Gigabit Ethernet PCIe device (although lspci does). I found this bug:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=574888

which indicates the problem will be fixed when the installer uses the linux-2.6.32-11 kernel. I don't know how to find an installer that uses this kernel, so in the meanwhile, I have a totally useless brand new computer. Any help?

Thanks!
