Package: installation-reports
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

When performing the install, we are asked during 'Network Detect' stage if we want to install support for 'usb-mass-storage', then for 'PC-Card'. We may wish to answer no to these. However, we will be re-asked twice more during the installation steps (I don't remind the second one, the third one being for 'Disk Detection' step).
Maybe the installer could remind our choice and not ask again ?

This is a design choice.

As you progress along th installer, mor ehardware support is installed
and, at some moment, you might want to use one of the removable media
to load...whatever could be needed.

Please note that these questions only appear during expert installs
and not default installs.

So, I don't think this is something we will "fix" as this is actually
more a feature than a bug.
