Hello all,

at friendly-recovery (0.1.2) hardy-proposed; urgency=low

 I have some sugestions:

1)Do not lock dhclient at eth0 interface. the network could be attache at any interface and we should cannot force have a internet at eth0

change dhclient eth0 to dhclient and it will listen all interfaces

2) other sugestion is enable dhcp option to this to "Repair broken packages" too.
Many people like me have a wireless router to share internet access and use always dhcp to connect to internet.

In my case ( I think that many people too) I need the wireless interface enabled too. The network manager and the PSK saved could be available too.

3) I know that in recovery mode, only essential services should be started to avoid break the system again ( if you need recovery mode, you are in bad luck :)
then could be a check box with the options

( ) No start netwoks
( ) Start minimun interfaces ( aka ethX)
(x) Start all networks interfaces,includes wireless ( default option)
