Comments/Problems:
DHCP network config is not working with AMD64 image. Network config with DHCP fail. Manual Network config with correct params do not allow to get to the ftp server for install of packages.

Retried lots of time.

After retrying with the I386 version of installer downloaded on the 1st June 2008 everything work fine.
