Bug#645740: ntp suggestions for installation

[Marc Haber <mh+debian-packages@zugschlus.de>]

Package: debian-installer
Severity: wishlist
Tags: d-i

Hi,

while playing around with d-i, I had the following ideas about ntp
handling:

 - d-i should show which ntp server it is trying to talk to while it
   is trying to talk to them. I guess these are some pool.ntp.org
   servers.
 - If d-i cannot successfully talk to any pool.ntp.org servers, it
   could try ntp'ing from the default gateway, and, if a proxy is
   configured, from the proxy.
 - The installed system should have its ntp server configured to the
   servers that the installer was able to correctly talk to.

This behavior would make sure that the clock would be at reasonable
configuration values even if the system itself cannot directly reach
the Internet.

Greetings
Marc
