Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal

I recently installed Debian from a netinst CD onto a laptop.  The installation
overall went fairly smoothly, except that I was not initially able to access
the network: the ethernet card was correctly recognized and configured,
but my network connection requires an authentication step via a web
browser, and netinst does not include any.  So I've had to do a minimal
install from netinst, then use an USB flash drive to copy lynx (and a couple
auxiliary libraries), then authenticate, then finally do the rest of the
install "manually" (via apt-get).
