I note from the latest posts that some people have unreliable connections to the internet at install time. Now in my 14 years of installing mandrake, mandriva, mageia the web has never been available during installation. For some of those years it was dialup and in later installs the network adapter was probably only supported under windows. However, for the last five or six installs there has been native support but the attempt to connect at the end of the install has always failed. On booting the new system the network comes up fine.
Is this an area worth investigating? It does not really bother me but newcomers might have their confidence shaken at this point. Len
