Summary0000829: install locks up at "Detect Network Hardware"
Description

When trying to install Kali on a Toshiba Satellite Laptop, the installation stops at the "Detect network hardware" page.

Steps To Reproduce

I have tried installing on the same laptop multiple times, and it has the same effect.

I have taken the same dvd and used it to install on a dell inspiron 1501 and it works great.

Sorry I forgot to add this, but I am able to run Kali fine via a Live Disk, but I am unable to get the install to go past the "Detect Network Hardware" phase

You will have to provide some logs of installation (have a look at the fourth console, CTRL+ALT+F4, or start a shell on the second console and open up /var/log/syslog).

It would also be nice if you could confirm that the problem still persists with Kali 1.0.6 which we released recently. Maybe its newer kernel works better...
