Well i tried the ubuntu-amd64 (hoary preview) installer, and aside from being buggy in several ways that perhaps aren't worth mentioning here, it's not able to support the BCM5700 NIC, either. So it remains an open question: how to install debian-amd64 on a machine with BCM5700 NICs? lspci -v recognizes these specific cards as "Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5721 Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 11)" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
