Pixel,

    Whenever an install or upgrade is done, either with the 7.1 distribution or
Cooker, these are the problems:

    Routing from the gateway address is not enabled.  This needs to be turned on
after 1st boot.  But for @Home users, this needs to be enabled when the install
script tries to access the Crypto applications on the ftp sites.
    The DNS search path doesn't get set up right, is usually left blank.  Again,
adding this after first boot fixes the problem.

    Not bad exactly, just doesn't set up the search path correctly.

    How would I check this during an install or upgrade?
