I'm doing an update or upgrade from 10.1 to 10.2-RC1 - it is not a fresh
install (the 10.1 is a test partition installed almost on purpose to test
this procedure).
This is important: it is not a fresh install. It is an update of an
already installed system. I'm testing the 10.1 to 10.2 update. Many
configuration questions are skipped by the installer program, becauseit
only has to look at the installed old system to know them.
Boot from 10.2-RC1 DVD, get to the question of what I want to do, select
update system, click on add on sources, and a bit further on, it requests
me to add those sources. Fails to add them, no network yet.
This is before the window where the info of what it is going to
install/update/whatever appears. I had to cancell the add on sources to
get to the next window, but there is nothing about network there.
So I aborted, and I await for instructions :-}
