I'm guessing the installer just does not re-read resolv.conf at the right
time?  What happens if you enable install-by-ssh, and then ssh in?
AFAIK, that starts a new installer binary, so it ought to read things afresh.
I'm not saying this is a fix, it's not.  But it might reveal more about what
is wrong.

But it can install the base OS?  My guess because "apt" reads /etc/resov.conf
itself, so it doesn't care that the installer didn't.  Am I hearing that it
can't get beyond the base-OS (like tasksel), or did I misunderstand and that there isn't a
second step.
