           Summary: Installation routine bug
           Product: Installation
           Version: 1.831
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: Installation
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


The current installation routine asked for setup of user account which allow user 
to choose between using either NIS or LDAP for authentication. However, since 
network has not been setup at this point, the machine have no way of locating 
the NIS or LDAP server.  Instead the installation let user going through an 
endless loop of asking the same question over and over and reply with an error 
until user change the setting to local authentication.  
 
The installation routine should allow setting up of network before adding user 
like before, not after.  
 
Also, there's no way of going back to change important setting using the current 
installation method.
