The other option would be to use the debian installation media you already have and: 1) to install with no network card and you may get some module for using ethernet over firewire 2) then copy over the e1000e src tarball download from intel's website from a usb drive or other medium 3) install the build-essentials and kernel headers 4) uncompress the e1000e src tarball and compile the kernel module for your network card. -M Turn down-time into play-time with Messenger games Play Now! |
