Maybe your definition of media is different from mine. My contention is when
you as installation person only download a kernel and an initrd, and boot
them with grub and turn over control of downloading to the installation
program that the installation kernel and initrd download, from which further
downloads are made with no intervention from the installation person, that
there is no media check any installation person can do.
