I still think there is something wrong with the image.

I went ahead and downloaded the net install for Lenny, and have since
upgraded it to Sid.  It works just fine, and the only differences so far
that I noticed is that Sid uses the 2.6.18-k7 (so does Lenny) on this
system by default, and there doesn't seem to be any later kernel
available in the Sid repo.

My Sidux install OTOH, uses 2.6.21.1

It doesn't really make a lot of difference unless of course one has
hardware that isn't recognized by the 2.6.18 kernel.  But even Ubuntu is
using a 2.6.20, so I wonder.

In any event, my Sid partition is working just fine, and is fully up to
date.  It does boot nice and fast!

Thanks,

Joe
