Yeah what about ISP's that stop some people internet connection for a few days - installation without internet should be the default in Ubuntu.
And this is very bad - instead of loading packages from the available cd, the mirroring sites are overloaded. Mirror sites should be stopped by default. And what if a complete internet stall because of some disaster or a bad man that coded a multios multiplatform virus for stalling it comes ? Without an internet connection ubuntu must not be useless or faulty. The questions like 'need to download support for that' should be more rare. By the way - Star Trek Voyager Intrepid Class did not have an internet connection. That can happen nowadays with a computer... or ship... or starship. -- Installing without Internet access causes repositories are not properly configured https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224122 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
