netinst network setup
If a netinst version of the installer connects with the internet would it
be possible to have a version as part of the installation process at least
give the installer the option to save those network settings in
/etc/network/interfaces so if that option were chosen the post-install
debian version would connect to the internet? The last time I installed
debian, that didn't happen and installing mate/gnome and using the
gnome-orca package and bringing up the network connections to get a wifi
connection set up didn't work all that easily. I only put a graphical
interface on a system for two reasons. It's new and I want to experiment
with it, or more browser than lynx is needed to solve a captcha. Other
than that, I'm found in the command line for most of what I do and that's
by preference.
