Hello,

Network connectivity is definitely required.

That you were able to continue without networking looks like a bug.
However, I just tried, and when networking is unavailable, I get the
“Connection error” box that only allows me to go back to the “Checking
connectivity” dialog; there’s no way to skip that AFAICS.

Or did you turn off networking after you had it on initially?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
