It seemed that your card have not been detected by the FAI kernel.
Does your machine have Firewire 1394. If it does, try to turn it off
in BIOS. It may interfere the other card.
There's a lot of troubles since using Gigabit Ethernet card in
installing FAI. I had that trouble with Marvell Yukon Gigabit when
trying to booting up FAI. Some stuff didn't work well with the driver.
So i added some Megabit-based card to accomplish that task.
But i think there's no problem with Intel-based card.
