Yes, but you miss the reason why it is this way. The DVD is intended
to be self contained, to allow for example a school in the savannah in
Africa to get a fully working Skolelinux installation even thought
there is no Internet connection available.

We could try to enable network during installation, but it would not
solve the goal of making the DVD self contained.
