I'm trying to intall Ubuntu 10.04 server 32-bit on an Acer Aspire One D255-1549 netbook. I want to use it as a low power web server I can leave on all the time. The install will not proceed because it cannot detect the NIC and then will not continue past the part were you have to specify the arhive mirror because it can't get on the internet. The install doesn't include the driver for my NIC (Atheros AR8152). I'm new to linux and Ubuntu. Is there a way I can add the driver to the installation image?

Thanks!

Seems I didn't copy the files to the flash drive correctly to install on my netbook and that's why I couldn't continue the install. Sorry for the dumb post. LOL. :/
