[Debian-eeepc-devel] Problem with the custom installer

[Xavier Gendre]

Hi all,

i have a eeepc 701 4G and i have tried to install debian-eeepc with the 
custom installer. The problem is that the wifi and ethrnet don't work 
with the image debian-eeepc_20080907.img but all is good with the old 
one (the debian-eeepc_20080729.img). The problem that happen with the 
current image is the following: i enter the correct ESSID and wep key 
and the DHCP fails every time with these messages in syslog:
