Installation
Preliminary Networking Information
The Debian installation software provides for the configuration of the network
as early as possible in the installation process. This creates the potential for
performing the remainder of the installation from a network mounted device.
The network installation process is concerned with the construction of three
configuration files:
/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf
/etc/init.d/network
It does so by collecting the following information:
Host Name
Domain Name
Full Name
IP address
Netmask
Network Address
Broadcast Address
Gateway Address
Nameserver Addresses
The Host Name is the name given to the machine itself. The installation
software provides the name debian as the default value. Any  reasonable 
string of characters can be used as a host name, but normally this is intended
to be readable and should thus be a legitimate name. On some local area
networks these names are determined by the network administrator. In this
case the name will need to be supplied by the administrator.
