Public bug reported: The network-settings-and-connection screen on the oneiric LiveCD installer is placed AFTER the first screen in which the user is prompted whether or not to install third-party software. This is problematic, as one needs to be connected to the Internet to be able to tick the options of the previous page.
Suggestion: place the network-settings-and-connection screen before the current first screen edit. That way, it would prevent one having to press the back button after initiating an Internet connection.
