[Bug 1771823] Re: Please include ax88179_178a and r8152 modules in d-i udeb

[Joseph Salisbury]

I built a test kernel with those two modules built into the kernel.  The test kernel can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1771823

Can you test this kernel and see if it resolves this bug?

Note about installing test kernels:
• If the test kernel is prior to 4.15(Bionic) you need to install the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.
• If the test kernel is 4.15(Bionic) or newer, you need to install the linux-modules, linux-modules-extra and linux-image-unsigned .deb packages.

Thanks in advance!

  r8152 is used in a thunderbolt-connected docking station and
  ax88179_178a by an external USB dongle.

  Despite having two nics connected i can't install Bionic. :-)

  This is probably a subset of the modules to be included when fixing
