Well, I'm right now running the 42.3 netinstall media on a virtual machine. I see the button to "configure online repositories" in the next screen after the display of the world map for setting the time zone.
What I did not see was a display to configure network, that must be much earlier on the setup, and it expects automatic (dhcp) to work. If it finds it, it keeps silent and starts the main job.
That makes since, because IIRC, as soon as I set the clock, I was dumped right into the partitioner, ... and there changing from btrfs on root caused the 40G root to be recreated as a 10G ext4 root which expanded the size of home in the suggestion the partitioner displayed -- causing me to have to delete both and start over -- but for the simple 3-primary case (including swap), that was no big deal. continuing from the partitioner, I think the only screen I got before package selection was the user-setup, where I nix the use as administrative account to get a traditional root account + user account, next screen was set root password and then package selection (or package selection could have been before user??) but that was about it. I never had an option to configure online repos until the reboot and my lauching of yast. I downloaded the 42.3 net install a week ago or so, if that makes a difference on the version. -- David C.
