Re: installer fails to configure DHCP

Oh, sorry.
I meant define a fixed ip for the device on your network not the external one. When you configure settings, try to used a fixed ip address and define a google dns (4.4.4.4 8.8.8.8 are the ones and are much faster than my provider). 

BTW it iwas 5€/month here in Greece for a static.I had one, years ago.

DNS is a big problem for me as well(DHCP mostly works), maybe just use
static ips for that?

Also fails to configure automatically without host name.  I think what's
really happening here is a configuration is attempted and the system fails
to check for success or failure status of that configuration and just
assumes the configuration has happened as it moves along to the next step.
With a network that is slow, I've had to get out to the main menu and
select configure network as many as four times to get an actual working
network connection the installer could use to finish its work.  On the
cable system I use for internet, even after installation I often read the
messages on aptitude update attempts and aptitude full-upgrade attempts
something wicked happened while trying to connect to
http://ftp.us.debian.org/ no ip address associated with name.  I don't
even know what error code that is, but if that's happening with the
installer it's no wonder the network connection temporarily fails.  By the
way, I maintain the same connection and try those aptitude commands a few
seconds later and the commands then work properly. On Sun, 27 Nov 2011,

Otherwise, the Realtek card works perfectly on this machine (I just
wanted to reinstall in order to reshape  partitions). Then, I noticed
that this is a standing bug:

The sole chance I am given for my LVM is to shrink /home to provide
space for /usr, whici is short of space. Not an alluring project, as
if it fails I am without OS.
