IIRC, Gary, the answer is as simple as "Just Say NO!" - when asked about
configuring your network. If your connection is only going to be via
dialup, use the dialup connection tool later, and leave then network
alone during the install. Worst case, when dealing with a card in any
system, of course, is simply pull the card, finish the install, and then
reinsert the card. kudzu will recognize the presence of the card, but
you don't have to configure it.
Hope it helps
