[Bug 27842] Re: [dapper] Live and install CDs hang detecting network hardware on M810 system

[LowellBoggs]

Has anyone found a fix for this yet?

I have tried to install all the following with the same result:

  suse 10.2
  ubuntu 6.06
  ubuntu 6.10

Is there some algorithm for doing the installation that will make the ethernet work -- such as:
1.  disable the NIC on boot
2.  install Ubuntu from 1'st install disk
3.  apply some patch
4.  continue installation from now working network?

Thanks,
  Lowell
