Now or in 2006? Should i ask the debian-installer developers to put an end to this silly debate? Anyway i made out the bug report because all the machines we have at home have an IP 192.168.1.xxx and while installing AT THOSE TIMES the installer would look for a DHCP server and did not allow me to manually provide the addressess. This circumstance was ascertained by Colin Watson (see please the second msg in the thread). Finally i do not like to disturb maintainers and developers whom i thank for their great work therefore before opening a bug report i double check several times, so even if you were right (and i do not think so) it means that by no means to install ubuntu was straightforward with my network configuration , take into account that in 2006 i was not a newbie and had installed ubuntu early since warthy and debian starting from Hamm in 1999
