Comments/Problems:
The only problem I struck was on the configuration of the network. I
performed this install with my wireless card, an Avaya (orinoco chipset)
PCMCIA adapter.
The wireless adapter was detected, and I was prompted for an ESSID and WEP
key. The WEP key wasn't set when the wireless network was brought up though,
so I had to manually switch to the second terminal to set it with iwconfig
to get DHCP to work. I've already filed a bug against netcfg (#262624) on
this.
I also think I was prompted about a proxy server twice, once when doing the
initial apt-get update, and once when adding security repository. I wasn't
paying close attention, so I'll check again shortly when I do another test
install with a different setup.
