Network is required for the netinst CD installation. For the USB stick install it is actually optional, and the way it is implemented at the moment is that the installer will try DHCP to get a network connection, and if it can't, it will ask the way Mike described. It will work just fine to tell the installer to continue without network, or to set up the network manually. I am not sure if it is easy to get the netcfg udev to behave differently. -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
