Hi,
I try to install Linux Debian (Etch and Lenny) in a new desktop HP Compaq 6000 Pro, and the système can't find the network card drivers.
I use the network installation (pxe,tftp(Linux,initrd), dhcp),and i dont know how can i do to use this Desktop

Shalom Semlali,

Two possible courses of action.

Look at the machine specifications for the system and find out who builds the card. Visit their website and they may provide a Linux driver for the card.

Go to a computer store or website and pick out a generic NIC card, install that. Linux will automatically pick up most Intel, Netgear and Dlink cards.

Most entry level HP computers are build only to support Windows, no other OS.
