Re: A simple question FORK! Something that bugs me about net-installs and security
Many people are installing Debian "from the internet". Yet, the Securing
Debian Manual suggests no contact with the internet until the
installation is "secure."
The manual states that installing the OS off the web is not the best
idea (Section 3.3 found here:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/securing-debian-howto/ch3.en.html )
Is the manual WRONG about net installs?
Are net installs (let's say for a Desktop environment) totally without
vulnerability risks?
When, during an installation, do/should people think about
security/vulnerability issues of the software they are installing?
