Hi folks,

do you think it would be possible for the installer to show
an eye-catching warning, if "ifconfig" reports "no carrier"
for the network port to configure?

Just a suggestion, of course

Why?

Because accidents happen. You plugin a cable in the left
socket and em0 turns out to be the right one. Imagine a
network appliance with ports labeled eth{1..8} instead
of eth{0..7}.

Sorry for asking
