[Hardy Alpha-2] No network interfaces detected on alternate install CD (Weybridge) - PCI ID 8086:10bd

[Xiaoyang Yu]

Hardware: Weybridge
OS: Hardy Alpha-2

Steps to reproduce:

When install using the alternate CD, the installer cannot detect the network interfaces. An error message shown: "No network interfaces detected."

I selected "continue", and the system can be installed.

After installation, and boot up from hard disk, the network interface can be detected correctly.

I collected some information when the error message shown. As in the attachement.

Thanks for your report. I've assigned this bug to the debian-installer package. In the future, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage can help you identify the correct package to file your bug in.

Thanks a lot Murat!

This is actually a bug with the kernel as the network driver does not seem to have been loaded. However, the dmesg log seems incomplete. Could you please see if '/var/log/syslog' in the alternate environment has more information? Thanks in advance.

[Xiaoyang Yu (xiaoyang-yu)]

Please kindly find the syslog file in the attachement. Although I did not find useful information in it.

Hi Xiaoyang,

After you guys are done testing Alpha 5, care to update this report and let us know if this is still an issue? Thanks.

Fixed in Hardy Alpha-5 x86_64 version.
