That's interesting, because from memory (it was some months ago), previous SXCE (nevada) installers easily allowed me to select DHCP and the host name, and then NWAM was installed for me and everything worked straight out of the box (could use internet from firefox immediately). With the latest SXCE (nevada b101), you can see what happened for me...
Anyway, I probably made some mistakes during installation (DNS?) and perhaps this made things go awry. However, I didn't have any problems with the older SXCE's so... Never mind, system is working now, so that's all that matters. Again, thanks for your help.
