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

I also hoped that this function will do something like mini-cd installation is doing - install all updated packages already during system installation. I was wondering that this feature is not presented. Now I understand why :) Btw. I tried it today with Beta 1, but it is not possible to install t

I actually thought it meant, "check for an updated version of this installer" i.e. clicking the button would simply check for (and, if found, install) a newer version of ubiquity - *not* any of the other software updates that might otherwise be dealt with post-installation. I guess this underlines
