Yes, it is possible also from installation mode: 1.

This may be problematic for multiple reasons: - some users may not have fast internet connection available at installation time; downloading one file (ISO) over another connection, somewhere else, asking a friend for that etc is much easier to organize than attaching your machine there - downloading templates over tor takes a long time... and some may prefer to not do it over clearnet on own connection (see point above) But we can think about it all later... > I see this approach is too late for Qubes4-rc1, but it could be useful for > some future release.
