I do agree the help would be on Ubuntu-users.
OTOH, it's true Breezy install CD doesn't allow the user to set up an
adsl connection - what I mean is if he's got adsl, Joe user (me) can't
get his network configured and used *during* the installation.
I've been here only shortly after Breezy release, so I could have missed
it, but has there been any discussion about including a network
detection for  DSL users too during the install?
