> It's very unlikely that we'll support that anytime soon. Why not? All it requires is the addition of `lynx' on the netinst images. Of course, space is relevant, so maybe the answer is "use another image". Still, I think lynx would make for a very pleasant addition, since it could also be used to get online help/info while doing the install.

It's my university's "free access" network, and it's definitely worth using when doing an install: I got 5MB/s as compared to the 300kB/s I'd get at home. And it's not 100% public (which is why it requires an authentication step). Tere might be security issues, but it's not like those issues are completely absent when using a different access method. > Looks like you found the correct solution to finish the installation. I did. But it was rather inconvenient. Basically take it as a plea to include lynx in the netinst image (while understanding that other priorities may keep lynx out of it in the foreseeable future).
