This onboard network card is not being detected during installation.

Intel's Windows driver download page lists this NIC in the same download
as the DX38BT. I've been using a DX38BT without issue for about a year.

Is it likely the DP55WB NIC is different?

Or does anyone have a suggestion to help discover the card?

Would it be accurate to submit this as an installer bug report?

The P55WB NIC may have only been recently added to a new kernel, I have
just ordered a P55KG recently and was also looking at this. It looks like
the best way to go now is to take my existing system w/ latest
kernel and run a restore to the host via USB key.

P55 Chipset: "Support for the Intel 82578DC Gigabit Network Connection"

I need to look into this more myself.

So the Debian installer/etc needs a newer kernel or pop in a PCI/-(e) nic
for the install, upgrade the kernel from there then flip back to on-board
nic.
