Debian or Fedora

[Glenn at home]

Hello Keith & Janina,
I am at the network prompt, and I am using a router on a cable modem.
It did not detect the dhcp host, and I am wondering if it should 
automatically.
Or should I enter the IP address for the router?
I am trying to do a network install.
Thanks.

Janina,

Probably way behind on this, but as I run both Fedora and Debian
and have just installed a base system of deb on a 12G drive I
thought I would throw in my 2 cents. My install was only 435 meg.
