The installer "picks up" a non-existent second lan on my motherboard, and links it to "eth0." I knew enough to choose "eth1," but I am concerned that more novice Debian users might have problems here. I maintain several computers in two homes, so I keep a mirror of the debian mirror at MIT.edu as a filesystem and copy that from computer to computer, then I install from the filesystem. I find this practice saves MIT.edu bandwidth (I only update one copy) and saves me time (a disk partition is faster that a DSL modem.) I was very upset that there was no way to install from the file system, or at least there was no obvious way of doing it (I am discussing a filesystem that I installed via a boot-cd to a large partition before installing debian on the same disk.) Looks like I could access an intranet lan to do this, but I do not have one set up. Being able to do this would be a great wishlist item for people responsible for multiple PC's.
