Fw: EEE-PC (900HD) + NetInst




Oh ok... I've tried to install debian 6.0.5 with a friend's computer
as router, sharing wifi connection on ethernet. I'm confirming the
module with:

dmesg | grep Wireless
[ 2.514297] r8180: Wireless extensions version 22

But actually, when I run "debian-6.0.5-i386-netinst.iso" written on a
USB stick (expert install), and when I select "configure the network",
it only shows me the DHCP check and a "IP address prompt". I know that
when there is 2 interfaces detected (Ethernet + Wireless), it asks you
which one to configure and if it's WiFi, it asks the Access-Point name
and the IP addresses.

That is correct. There is only one interface on the machine so d-i goes
straight to configuring it. Have you progressed beyond that point?
Actually, I have some news.
I've restarted d-i, it's still configuring ONLY eth0, so I can't go further.

But, I've started a rescue shell and tried:
lspci -nn
01:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8187SE Wireless LAN Controller (rev 22)
03:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications AR8121/AR8113/AR8114 Gigabit or Fast Ethernet (rev b0)

So... Both of my interfaces are detected. But when I start the network configuration, it configures eth0, without asking me to choose between the 2 network cards.

Normal behavior ?
