I have already seen this in a default install but didn't pay it much
attention.

The hostname beng the FQDN is maybe intentional, but I suspect that
in your case, the default proposed domain should then be
"student.umd.edu".

Hence reassigning this to netcfg as this is the only problem mentione
din your install report.

Thanks a lot for your testing od Debian Installer.
