Public bug reported:

If networking is not present on the server omap4 image, package
installation will silently fail to install any packages selected for
tasksel. The installation will continue without any notification that it
has failed, and drop you to a command prompt as per normal installation.
However, no selected packages are installed and there is no notification
that anything is out of the ordinary. This is a release-critical bug as
both offline installation must be supported, and silent failure is not
acceptable.

There is no relevant information in any log files created by oem-config.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run through the installation with no ethernet cord
2. Select various tasks to install
3. Complete installation

Expected outcome:
1. Selected packages should be installed, or at the very least fail with 
notification.
