later, i've found that adding a nameserver to resolv.conf does'nt help, so i
rebooted. at the second install attempt, the mouse was still not working so
i kept pressing f12 until an unhandled exception hit. at that point,
"Details" was selected so i press enter, and get a "the computer will be
rebooted when you'll press CTRL_ALT_DEL"
third time, i got lucky: after testing the netinst cd (two times) , the
mouse worked, the nameserver was already there, and when the unhandled
exception occured, i added myself to the cc of the existing bug. i'll try
again with the dvd, when the download completes.
