This means that if you only use the - CD as a source, only part of the Desktop task will be installed.<br /> - You can resolve this either <em>during the installation</em> by choosing - to use a network mirror as a source to install packages in addition to the - CD (not recommended if you don't have a decent internet connection), or - <em>after you have rebooted</em> into the installed system by using - <tt>apt-cdrom</tt> to load additional CDs and then selecting the Desktop - task again in <tt>aptitude</tt>. - </dd> - - <dt>Buggy routers may cause network problems</dt> - <dd> - If you experience network problems during the installation, this may be - caused by a router somewhere between you and the Debian mirror that - doesn't correctly handle window scaling. - See <a href="https://bugs.debian.org/401435">#401435</a> and this - <a href="http://kerneltrap.org/node/6723">kerneltrap article</a> for - details.<br /> - You can work around this issue by disabling TCP window scaling. Activate - a shell and enter the following command:<br /> - <tt>echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_window_scaling</tt><br /> - For the installed system you should probably not completely disable TCP - window scaling.
