Package: debian squeeze netinstall
Version: 6.0.0

When I install debian via the netinstall method (burn CD, boot, install), the 
installer asks for my network card type.  I answer (correctly) 3c509.  The 
installer apparently is able to find the card and a driver for it as it then 
connects to the Internet, downloads packages, etc.

However, the installer apparently does not transfer this knowledge to 
the installed OS.  When squeeze boots, aside from may other annoyances, it
has no clue there is a network card installed.  My various attempts to fix
this have so far been in vain since I cannot access the Internet.

I would suggest that the installer should pass along the network interface
info that it used during the install to the installed system.  I don't
remember having this issue with lenny.

I am using Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.0, kernel whatever it downloaded this AM.

thanks

Hi,

thank you for submitting installation reports, much appreciated.

I read through all the bugs mentioned here (and I'm sure they were read by 
several people at the time they were submitted) and am closing them now as/if
- they (finally) indicated success and/or
- I know from first hand experience that the functionality is working in 
Wheezy and/or
- they only contained very little information and/or
- they contained user errors and/or
- they have been from a development phase where things were not stable and/or
- they are quite old.

If I've closed a bug incorrectly please do reply (it's easy to reopen and I'll 
do if requested) or just file a new one - thats often better, as the bug log 
will be clearer and shorter and not contain cruft.


cheers,
        Holger
