[Bug 960502] [NEW] PowerPC Alternernate image cannot find network interfaces

[Lars Noodén]

Public bug reported:

The installation process is unable to find the network interfaces,
earlier versions could.  The error presented is:

"Configure the network
No network interfaces detected
No network interfaces were found. The installation system was unable to find a network device.

You may need to load a specific module for your card, if you have one.
For this, go back to the network hardware detection step. "
