During the installation process from the ISO image, after the step for searching network hardware, the installer immediately prompts for entering a static IP address without attempting to search for DHCP options. This behavior differs from my experience with Debian 11 (live build 2021), where the system correctly searched for DHCP before requesting a static IP.
Here are the details of my findings:
- Debian Version: 12.10 (live build 20230502 linux 6.1.135-1 live-boot 1:20230131+deb12u1 live-config 11.0.3 + nmu1 live-tools 1:20190831:1)
- Issue: Installer skips DHCP search and asks for static IP input right after network hardware detection.
- Previous Version: Debian 11.11 (live build 20210407 linux 5.10.234-1 live-boot 1:20210208 live-config 11.0.3 live-tools 1:20190831 ) worked as expected, properly searching for DHCP prior to requesting a static IP.
