I meant that they were pulling things in from sites they control, but
ones you wouldn't know about until you actually browse their site and
look at just where everything came from. That wouldn't be too bad but
you'd still have the issue of breaking things until you could add the
unknown hosts to /etc/hosts.

Dunno. But the Live image is different than the netinstall one.
One boots from a stick, the other won't.

In which way different?
They are bootable images on a CD, both.

But 'dd if=image.iso of=/dev/sdX bs=4M' makes one boot fine,
the other not.

I sure would like the netinstall on a stick :)
