With my latest PXE installation testing on a laptop, I ran into a problem I suspect is related to this fix:
[ Joey Hess ] * check-missing-firmware: When called from ethdetect, take interfaces up and down each time through the loop. Previously this was only done once, which caused a bug, as the first pass through does not prompt for missing firmware, and on subsequent passes, the firmware was not requested. Closes: #537502 (Thanks, Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen) When testing PXE on a HP Mini laptop, the PXE installer starts normally, is able to download udebs and continue to the point where partman try to download more packages. At this point 'route' report there is no longer any routes set up, and connections to the mirror fails. I looked in the syslog, and hw-detect was running just before partman started, making me suspect it is the cause of this problem.
