imho the network shouldn't need to be up to select this:
this is what you'd get:
[ ] DVD
[X] Network
[X] Updates
[ ] Backports
[ ] Nonfree
[ ] Tainted
there could even be a detection that if network is down, DVD would also be
selected.
i see no reason why we should not enable network sources if there's no
network, shouldn't it fallback to the DVD then?
and people could say i deslect DVD anyway, and ok, there will be no updates
until you actually get to be online... but there's no harm in that.
of course, this has some major refactoring
