Package: debian-installer
Version: 20061102
I'm trying to install Debian Etch at TYAN GT24 (2891) server machine. Installer dosen't detect the onboard Broadcom BCM5704 ethernet. Since the Linux kernel dos have the driver (tg3 AFAIK), I wonder why the card isn't detected. Even if I specify the driver from the list, it dosen't detect the card. 

I tested with SUSE 10 and it detects the NICs with no problems.
