That's because the installer is now using the qla2xxx module for the Blade's controller, and that module doesn't work without a binary firmware. What you need to do is just switching to a console (alt+f2), wget the qlogic firmware, install it, and re-load the qla2xxx module. wget http://http.us.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/firmware-qlogic_0.3_all.deb udpkg -i firmware-qlogic_0.3_all.deb modprobe -r qla2xxx modprobe qla2xxx ciao, ema -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
