That is, if, say, the network cable was disconnected at first and I connected it then told it to retry, it appeared to not bother retrying and simply proceeded immediately to the next screen. When I used `linux26' without any boot options, switching from console 1 and back during install corrupted the screen to the extent that I couldn't complete the install and had to restart. Using `video=vga16:off vga=771' fixed the problem, but then the background color on console 1 changed from blue at boot time to red after I changed consoles (!). The initial reboot ran ext3 recovery, suggesting that the root partition didn't get cleanly unmounted by the install. In general: this installer is a big improvement on the previous one.
