Now this sort of blind stupidity really irritates the hell out of

I was trying to do a stand-alone install of F20 on my laptop. The installer knows that I
have an Intel 3965 wifi setup, but NetworkManager *would not connect* no matter what I
tried. So I continued, without network access.
Anaconda burped in the middle of the install with a fatal error: No more mirrors! I
presume it was searching for an update (for PackageKit)... WTF???
Whoever thought that requiring network access was a good idea needs to be taken out and
spanked.
This is what install media? DVD.iso, netinst.iso, live desktop iso? What is Installation
Source set to when this happens? By default it's set to Local Media for DVD and live
desktop. And by default in Installation Source the option "Don't install the
latest available software updates" is checked. I've done numerous no network
installs while QA'ing F20 and have never once encountered what you're reporting.
