Bug Description

During the installation of a Dapper Flight 1 CD, on the primary network
interface page, the 2 ethernet cards in my laptop were presented as follow:
eth0: 8086 4220 wireless
eto1: 8086 1068

For Hoary and Breezy installations, the PCI IDs were not displayed for that
step, but instead I could see something more human readable; from memory, it was
close to "Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG" and "Intel 82562ET/EZ/GT/GZ - PRO/100 VE"
(which are the names the device manager identify these 2 cards on this laptop)
