AIR the Kubuntu installer didn't say anything about plugging in a network
cable, so we had no internet access until I plugged one in after the first
boot-up.
I noticed that the installer takes advantage of network availability if it's
there and does the online updates as part of the installation, but if it
suggested a wired connection in the absence of Wi-Fi, we didn't notice.
