Regarding the question during setup, this may not appear depending on
the type of installation.
For me, I always select  "Standard" and then "Custom" from the "Select

with questions on networking, ftp server, ssh and so on. I am so
accustomed to pressing these keys all the time I definitely don't know
whether there is a difference in the other sysinstall routes :)
