You will need to set up networking prior to selecting the installation 
source.

I consider it a UI glitch that the networking setup is the last item on 
the setup page, even though a working network connection may already be 
needed for the prior steps.

Networking is also needed for setting the time with NTP (in the timezone 
settings screen), and it also "mysteriously" fails if networking has not 
been set up yet.
