I can confirm this problem - it is not possible to get the ethernet interface detected with the netinstall set-up. We have seen this with both 10.04 and 11.10 as well. I've dug a little deeper and these are my findings:
- On a fully installed Kubuntu system (non-Shuttle/different NIC), the module "jme.ko" can be found in /lib/modules/X.Y.Z-RR-generic/kernel/drivers/net/ - If I take the initrd.gz file from the netinstall that is found on a Kubuntu 11.10 alternate (i386) CD (path: install/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz) and extract that, there is *no* jme.ko file in lib/modules/3.0.0-12-generic/kernel/drivers/net - in fact, there are quite a few network modules missing from that directory, so I would expect that this problems potentially affects other hardware as well. The solution of this problem could therefore most likely be as simple as creating a new initrd.gz for the netinstall which does contain the necessary modules. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/880316 Title: Ubuntu installer can't setup network on Shuttle XS35GTV2 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/880316/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
