Comments/Problems:

I'm using the Debian Sarge Netinstall RC1.

I type 

linux netcfg/disable_dhcp=true

at the initial boot prompt.

The installation runs thru a few steps successfully, and then jumps into
DHCP configuration, which succeeds.

It says - Network Auto Configuration Succeeded.

I do not want the DHCP routine to run, which is why I typed in
netcfg/disable_dhcp=true
