Hi,

Yes, I did that but it was still no go. The problem with the installed 
system was that I hadn't set the hardware address in UEFI (set MAC0 
xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx), after that networking worked.

The installer still didn't detect a connection on any of the nics, 
though I could assign an ip manually at the shell. Editing grub command 
line before running the installer cured that issue.

Cheers,
