How about something simple: Clicking the button/text will present a pop- up acknowledgment that will inform the user that it will attempt to update the installer but that an internet connection must already be configured. If proxy information is required, boot to the live CD session, configure the proxy information (assuming of course that configuring it from the live CD session will carry over to the installer) then perform this update. If attempting to fetch the updates fails, drop a message to the user that the installer is unable to fetch updates at this time, probably due to an improper internet connection (IE proxy present but no settings for such) and to boot the live CD session to verify internet connectivity.
I agree with several others: It would be nice if there was the possibility of using the CD and an internet connection to install a fully up-to-date system, just like the mini-CD would. Something simple like a prompt just before the final install acknowledgment to fetch updated package lists and packages as a part of the install. During the Kubuntu install, it should be presented between the "User Info" and "Summary" pages. This probably should be a separate bug (if it doesn't already exist). -- Not clear what "update this installer" will do https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/496908 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
