This sounds like it closes #299554 as far as the installer is concerned
however, if "no network card" is selected in the network configuration
of the first stage of the installation, no /etc/resolv.conf will be
created, and subsequent static or dynamic nameserver settings will be
lost if the user tries to set up PPP. I believe that the resolvconf
package solves this problem. Is resolvconf included in the latest
installer?
