Before installation

  • switched to discrete graphics (Intel 4500MHD) in the BIOS. I did't want to mess with the ATI card because of the driver issues.

Installation

Used an (amd64) USB image (hd-media) and the Lenny RC1 netinstall ISO. Installation worked flawlessly, the Gigabit Ethernet adapter was detected and configured. Installed without X, switched to sid in sources.list and then went for X and Gnome.

Working
