I have done at least 30 installs for different network setups in the
past few months, and did not know that...

Maybe that information should be a little easier to find on the Ubuntu
website.  Not only would that information have helped me on several
occasions, but I think it would have prevented the OPs original post.
He was just looking for a way of installing from a single media.  A net
install could offer a easy option.  But other than you posting in a
newsgroup for developers, how would the average corporate network admin
know this?
