------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-17-09 22:20 -------
I did another install and I tried to verify the above comments.

the directory /sbin doesn't contain the dhclient-script nor the dhclient one.

Using the "ip" command I was able to assign a valid IP address and route to the
ethernet device.

I tried seeing remote printers on the subnet, which worked after I re-applied
the network configuration manually, since this had been unconfigured by DrakX?

I then tried (after configuring X, which drakx very nicely reminded me to
configure) to finish the installation, including the updates. This failed
because I assume the network had been unconfigured again and since there is no
confirmation/retry option here, I was unable to do the updates again.

Is this unconfiguring of the network a security measure? (I agree with this BTW)
Wouldn't a common-sense firewall not be a better solution here?

I hope you now have enough information to fix it (hopefully on time for 9.2 final)

Since mandrake 9.1 I've not been able to select a mirror for updates at the end
of the installation process (even though this step is announced). This used to
work in 9.0.
This problem is still valid in 9.2rc2
