Debian Etch and Lenny

I have tow Desktop HP (HP Compaq 6000 Pro, HP Compaq 8000 Elite) When i try to install Linux Debian (Lenny or Etch) The système can't find the network drivers.
Can you help me to install this desktop with Linux Debian ?

Thanks

Re: Debian Etch and Lenny

It looks like you might need a bnx2 driver - do you get prompted for firmware files when installing lenny? If so, see:

http://wiki.debian.org/HP/ProLiant#Needbnx2firmware

If that doesn't help, you might try dropping to a shell (option in the installer) and providing the output of 'lspci' and 'lspci -n'

Re: Debian Etch and Lenny

Looks like support for this chip got added in 2.6.28 - Debian lenny is based on 2.6.26.

You could file a bug (severity important) request this backport to 2.6.26. You can also safely run the testing kernel in a lenny environment.

Hello.

Use "kmuto" lenny installer with 2.6.32 kernel:
