Beelink EQ cannot install linux. Need name of Ethernet Card

RalphBoland

I cannot install debian 12.2 because the Beelink EQ12 does
not recognize that the flash drive is plugged into the box.
Creating a second flash drive with with 12.2 didn't help.


Oddly enough when I try to install debian 11.1 the flash
drive is recognized and I can begin the install.
But when I get to the Ethernet the ethernet card is not
recognized and I am given a long list of ethernet cards
to choose from.  There are far too many to try them all.

Is there a way to find out what the ethernet card is?

Any idea why one flash drive is regognized but two
other ones are not?

Any recomendations on a mini computer thats not
too expensive and works well with debian/linux?

I am about ready to return the beelink EQ12 so
a quick response would be helpful.

Bye the way I expected the the EQ12 had a base
speed of 1GH  but it is only 800MH.  

and it says celeron for the processor, not N100.
Is the N100 a kind of celeron?

Any help much appreciated.

Hello there,

The Ethernet module is Intel i225-V.
The base frequency of the N100 is indeed 0.8, which can be checked on the intel official website.

Have a nice day!
