screenshot of broken network summary

Network configuration has some 'interesting' problems during installation. My machine has two network interfaces on-board: a via 10/100 and a marvell gigabit. For the first stage of installation 10/100 was used. After the reboot the gigabit interface was used. The setup screen showed, that both are inactive ant there is an "ethernet network card" which uses DHCP. Went to network setup, which did not list it, and showed as expected, that 10/100 is not configured, gigabit is using dhcp. Tried to change the 10/100 to DHCP, but after "finish" the summary screen still showed that it is not configured. Tried it again, with the same result. Exited the network configuration screen, which resulted in the attached screen. Looks a bit chaotic...

Seems to be fixed in beta1.

Installing today's factory (21st August), the bug reappeared in a slightly different form: both interfaces were identified as Via-rhine on screen. One of them was configured for DHCP, which turned out to be the Marvell one. Using 'delete' revealed the interface's real name.

Michal, afaik you fixed the udev rule creation in the first stage of installation. It seems not to work properly. Please have a look.

Comment 9 peter czanik 2007-08-23 13:55:03 UTC
Tested in beta2, problem seems to be solved.
Closed with WORKSFORME.
Comment 10 Holger Sickenberg 2007-08-23 14:01:33 UTC
Sorry, but it is not working in Beta 2 - see Bug #302544
Comment 11 peter czanik 2007-08-23 14:26:18 UTC
Then that is a separate problem, as it works perfectly over here, even with 3 networking cards.
Comment 12 Michal Zugec 2007-08-23 14:48:58 UTC
yes, bug Holger pointed in comment #10 is related to upgrade
