Bug Description
Hello,
I am trying to boot the debian-installer in the Amazon EC2, as described at the following URL:
http://
I prepared an AMI that contains the initrd.gz and vmlinuz files downloaded at the following URL (September 11 build).
http://
It boots PV-Grub with the aki-ec5df7ed kernel, and then starts Debian-Installer via a /boot/grub/menu.lst file. Unfortunately the configuration of the network fails with the following error.
┌───
│ │
│ 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 network card, if you │
│ have one. For this, go back to the network hardware detection step. │
│ │
│ <Go Back> <Continue> │

└───
Using the same approach with Debian Squeeze's installer, the network can be autoconfigured successfully (via preseeding).
Have a nice day,

Thanks for your report. Do you know what kernel module ought to be used in this situation? The current images include the xen-netfront module, which I would have thought was the relevant one.
