 The issue as reported is no longer present in the 2.1 installer. However
 there are some related things that are somewhat confusing:
 - when setting media options, available options are displayed as "media
 10baseT", "media 10base5", etc.
 However, the in installer seems to expect the user to enter "10baseT",
 "10base5" only.
 - these settings are not automatically preserved. After the installation
 one has to manually add the respective media directive to
 /etc/ifconfig.ep0
