However, I don't think it would be a big deal to write a script that
could be run after installation that walked you through your network
setup. And a mention of it in afterboot; 'If you want to set up a

Sounds great in theory, but as Theo gently reminded me when I asked this
a year or two ago, there's only so much space on a single 1.44M floppy.
Including even rudimentary PPPoE would crowd out other drivers and tools

Why not just make it a special feature for people who buy the CD?
Go ahead. Roll your own version of OpenBSD with your special installer
and sell the CDs.

Since some people are so nice and started bitching around like they
were some 12 year olds, I feel the need to set something straight here.
Personally, I really don't care if there is an additional, optional,
setup routine for anything since I don't need it, would probably never
use it and will
Would it be possible that the installer asks if you may wanna use the NIC
for pppoe-Connections and then maybe also asks for User/PW for the
connection-settings? :)
In my oppinion this little change may would maybe bring more usebillity
(or how that`s written...) and it would save some time wich
I don't like this idea. I think it is the wrong assumption that most
