just a 10.0 installation comment



Hello.

Thanks and congratulation for 10.0 (again).

I installed it last week (VM) and it occurred to me that at one
time it asked for a network mechanism, without any help or comment
around.  I ^D or ^Z, and tried to figure out in the manual (also
online, thanks to VM-only), i could simply invoke dhcpcd and the
interface was up and running, but after ^D and back at the install
thing all bets were off.  I have forgotten how i made that great,
in the end the "mechanism" was just somehow, magically,
"<default>".  Any hint for red flag waving idiots like myself
would be very much appreciated (for 11.0, then).  (I mean, sure,
"Stander Z" aka red flag is forgotten German speaking for what
female have to go through monthly.  Bitter.  And bloody.)

Thank you.
