Thanks, Baron. Yes, I thought of the cable.
After reading your suggestion, I have ordered a new network card because the
network card is indeed an old one. I couldn't install with the on-board one
because the driver is not in the Squeeze install. I was concentrating on the
basic problem, and installed an old network card so that the driver would
indeed be supplied by the installer.
I am beginning to wonder whether I damaged the motherboard when I was
installing it. :-(
Thanks for your help,
