Bug Description
Binary package hint: pxe
Although the Atheros AR8131 chip that is present on the Asus M4A78LT-M motherboard is supported out of the box using the 10.04 live CD it is unable to do a PXE network install. The network install will halt with an error saying no network device found and if I manually try to detect network hardware it just gives the option to choose a driver. I have the newest netboot files and have done many other network installs with older motherboards.

Exact same problem here on Asus laptop UL50Ag-A2 with AR8131/8132 NIC, trying 10.04-alternate iso pxe network install.
I tried compiling the AR81 Family linux drivers 1.0.1.9 from Atheros (see http:// bugs.launchpad. net/ubuntu/ +source/ linux-ubuntu- modules- 2.6.24/ +bug/341183) and putting them on a removable USB drive. But when the graphical net installer looks on the USB drive, either the drivers either didn't compile properly or the installer just doesn't see them.
