There's a lot of cases where you might have the device configured with networking as you wish (IE dhcp) but you don't have it connected when initial-setup runs. Some examples include: * network not currently available * want to connect late via some other method than ethernet * doesn't need networking OOTB * security process (a lot of companies require an initial config and firewall securing before allowing an initial network connection) In this case the network configuration is as expected and shouldn't block on networking not being up because the device will function as intended with local user login available over the serial console etc. ================================================================================ ================================================================================ Initial setup of Fedora 24 (Twenty Four) 1) [x] Language settings 2) [x] Timezone settings (English (United States)) (Etc/UTC timezone) 3) [!] Network configuration 4) [x] Root password (Not connected) (Password is set.) 5) [x] User creation (Administrator peter will be cr eated) Please make your choice from above ['q' to quit | 'c' to continue | 'r' to refresh]: c Please complete all spokes before continuing Please make your choice from above ['q' to quit | 'c' to continue | 'r' to refresh]: c Please complete all spokes before continuing Please make your choice from above ['q' to quit | 'c' to continue | 'r' to refresh]: 3 ================================================================================ ================================================================================ Network configuration Wired (eth0) disconnected Host Name: bonegreen.home.roving-it.com 1) Set host name 2) Configure device eth0 Please make your choice from above ['q' to quit | 'c' to continue | 'r' to refresh]: 2 ================================================================================ ================================================================================ Device configuration 1) IPv4 address or "dhcp" for DHCP dhcp 2) IPv4 netmask 3) IPv4 gateway 4) IPv6 address or "auto" for automatic, "dhcp" for DHCP, "ignore" to turn off auto 5) IPv6 default gateway 6) Nameservers (comma separated) 7) [x] Connect automatically after reboot 8) [ ] Apply configuration in installer Configuring device eth0.
