Comments/Problems:

When I use 'linux netcfg/use_dhcp=false'
at the 'boot:' prompt the installer still
tries to configure the system using DHCP.
This did not happen (i.e. it worked fine)
with a testing snapshot I tried about
2 months ago.
Also, the text on the installer screen is
very hard to read.  I don't have the best
vision in the world and the color scheme
and font size are not a very good combination.
