Comments/Problems:

Did not find my e1000e network interface, even after selecting it
explicitly from the list. After installing without using a net
connection, a simple "modprobe e1000e" and "dhclient" made the net
connection work. The following were added automaticly to /etc/modules
by the installation:

e100
e1000
e1000e

But booting with these in /etc/modules did not make the network
interface work. Had to do "modprobe e1000e" manually after each boot.

It was hard to see that I probably could have asked for a command
prompt during the installation and done the modprobe while installing.
Installing all the packages later is a pain in the ass, not knowing
which ones are part of the base system.

I also did not find any way to continue the unsuccessful netinst from
where I left off, had to start over and repartition everything.

Thanks; closing.  Sorry for the long delay in responding.

Do you mean that there is still an unfixed part of this?  Hints for
inclusion in the errata (or for reviving the bug) would indeed be
helpful.
