  Check the CD that came with the motherboard -- I recently
installed etch on some P5GC-MX/1333 machines (which is *not* exactly
the same mobo, I learned that...) and there's a "linux" directory
on the CD with source for an atl2 module that works with the
Debian "etch" 2.6.18 kernel.

  Of course, you'll need to get the linux-headers package and 
a compiler on to the system first, I'm not sure if they're in the
Debian netinst CD or not.
