Bug#1064791: No ethernet card in a laptop



Package: debian-installer

On my new laptop, d-i prints "No Ethernet card was detected.  If you know
the name of the driver (etc)".  This confused me, as I thought it _also_
couldn't find the wifi driver (since it's a new laptop, it's possible
the d-i kernel doesn't know about the wifi device).

I suggest that if d-i can find a wifi device, it skips the step where
it gives me a long inscrutable list of module names and asks me to
choose one to make the network work.
