Description Aleksey Nogin 2001-10-12 17:43:01 EDT

Currently, bootnet.img always goes through a network setup screen. It would
be nice if it could first ask whether the system is being upgraded and then
use the existing netowrk setup if it is.

The code required to find existing installations is not available in the first
stage loader.  This would require major reworking (if even possible).
