Comments/Problems:
I'm using the Debian Sarge Netinstall RC1.
I type
linux netcfg/disable_dhcp=true
at the initial boot prompt.
The installation runs thru a few steps successfully, and then jumps into
DHCP configuration, which succeeds.
It says - Network Auto Configuration Succeeded.
I do not want the DHCP routine to run, which is why I typed in netcfg/disable_dhcp=true
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
