No Network Device

Just got the BitDefender-Rescue-CD DEC2010 verion, it boot but will not perform update as there is no network device being detected. This happens on a DELL VOSTRO 230 computer with AMI BIOS and Broadcom 57xx NIC. Try the same CD on two old models; DELL Optiplex310 and Dimension 3100, both works fine, being able to detect the NIC and performs update.


I try the old RescueCD v2.0.0.5-10.2010. It works on the two older DELL models and it will hangs on Probing/loading AGP module on the Vostro 230 computer. The Dec2010 CD will load to a working screen, just no NIC/network.


Below are some screen errors;


Starting udev hot plug hw detection udev-event 2322 run-program/sbin/modprobe ABNORMAL EXIT


Autoconfigurating device- has a long green bar across


Warning: Autodetection seems to hang


Please check you computer BIOS settings

Executing/etc/int.d/xsession start: after session terminates, system will auto shutdown


Probing/loading AGP modules... (seem hangs forever here)


My question is; Is this related to the AMI BIOS setting ?


The other DELL Optiplex 320 and Dimension are not using AMI BIOS, it is either DELL's own BIOS or Phoenix BIOS.


Any idea to make it works?


Thank You.
