Comments/Problems:
My only network connection is through a Dell TrueMobile 1300 802.11g
card, with no Linux support. I get everyday access through LinuxAnt's
driverloader software, but this requires non-free nondistributable
components and a paid license key. As such, I was installing a pure base
system with no network connection.
During install, I was presented automatically with a network
configuration screen (I also have a perfectly usable but non-connected
10/100 card), which I had to go through with empty values because I had
no working connection. After every subsequent installer segment, I was
presented again with the network configuration screen, even though I had
canceled it many times before.
Ultimately, after "Install base system" completed, network configuration
came up again, but would run endlessly. I'd complete it with empty
values, it would do some 'modprobe' business, and it would start again.
At this point I gave up and quit the installer.

This is your installation report analysis. I here will try to assign
individual bugs to each concerned package.

I will here assume that you are using the "netinst" CD. If you
weren't, then this bug is not a bug as this is of course the only CD
which can complete a base system installation without network access.
(not completely sure of this, however)
Can you please confirm which ISO image you were using ?
Up to now, I will just clone this report to a bug assigned to
"debian-installer" with "allow skipping network configuration".
