Hi. Well, script is sure nice, but when I installed the whole distribution from scratch yesterday, it was some pain: I requested ipmasq package to be installed (among other 800 or so things :) and when it asked me how to configure itself, I had no idea how to answer the questions it asked - like the IP of external interface- how do I know, it is a ppp dialup! So, I left the answers blank. As a result, after reboot my system had ALL the networking forbidden. Purging the package helped, but I had to spend quite a few minutes figuring out what's going on.
