For some reason it didn't take. Maybe I didn't click a save box when I should have. I don't know. My recollection (from installing 6.0 a couple times) is that even if you check the aforementioned checkbox during the install, once you're done, the network is not (properly) configured. I think there's a bug on that in the "upstream" bugzilla. I do believe it has been fixed in 6.2, though.
