Hi Karl,
The installation of Debian is very difficult for laptop users using
WPA or using (temporary/failed) off-line installation, since there is
no network manager included on CD1. This might well be a deal-breaker
for most newcomers to Debian GNU/Linux, as configuring with
wpasupplicant is obtrusive, and far from common knowledge.
Including network-manager-gnome (and/or wicd-curses) would be a great
improvement.
Agreed, yes. These days, we're always struggling to make enough of a
system fit on CD1 alone (for either KDE or Gnome). We'll continue
looking into it, and thanks for your report!
