*AirPort in the Installer** -- For reasons I can't comprehend, when you're running the Leopard installer from the DVD, the AirPort
status icon appears in the menu bar. Initially it indicates that
AirPort is off, but you can turn it back on and join a wireless
network right there, in the installer. I can't think of any reason
why you'd want or need to do this, Apple doesn't mention it in their
documentation, and I've read several reports of people having
difficulties with the installation process after attempting to join
a wireless network while booted from the DVD. Why would Apple
include this seemingly useless feature, which can only tempt people
to take an unnecessary action that might actually cause problems?
Aha, interesting!
Perhaps this is an indication of a very cool possible feature, the
ability to boot or do a mini install over a WiFi network?
