I've never installed with more than one cd, but from memory, the installer asks for extra media, surely if your installing from the free dvd and have to eject it to add a non-free cd then that would cause problems, or have I misunderstood?
Nope, Installer will only ask you to switch media when needed, and then continue.
If I've misunderstood, this would be really great. An extra thing would be a plug in that the installer could download for you containing the non-free stuff. Quite often I install new stuff on my laptop close to a wire, then take it out with me and thats when I need the wireless stuff. Not to mention non-free graphics drivers on desktops that have a wired connection having to be installed and set up post install.
It already can if you add network medias during install, but in order to pull anything from the net, you need the firmware (if you have a nic/wifi that needs it) -- thomas
