After connecting my android phone and usb > tethering, I could install usb-modeswitch and use internet. d-i _could_ make use of usb-modeswitch{,-data} without too much hassle, but that would just make the GSM modems appear. Then there's modemmanager as interface for it, and 3gpp is also needed. This makes for a lot of packages needed to be installed to get a network connection *during d-i*. > I think graphical system with synaptic should be installed on CD 1.( …) > > Can we install gdm3 and synaptic on CD1? You are mixing two entirely unrelated questions here: * d-i context. It currently has (somewhat limited) WiFi support; we could discuss mobile broadband support (and this is the subject of your bugreport) * what is installed by CD-1; you are arguing that usb-modeswitch{,-data} should be. I can agree two both wishlist ideas, but they are unrelated. -- Cheers, OdyX
