I installed F12 alpha from the DVD and had the feeling that the

is used during installation. So the installation was awful slow.
For confirming this, I tried to install again after having de-activated
the LAN chip in the BIOS, and, indeeded, the installation was cancelled
(after the install partition had been formatted).
Is there any option for installing F12 without accessing the LAN (I have
DSL with 1 Megabit/sec)?
All comments are welcome.
Installing from a DVD should not require a network connection unless you
enable a network package repository. Please do file a bug if you are
seeing something to the contrary. Can you include your anaconda.log
from the DVD install when filing?
Thanks,
