How is the machine going to connect to the internet to download stage2, 
repoinfo and packages ?

Are you asking whether the installer brings up the iptables firewall, 
with external connections dropped and internal outbound connections 
allowed, as it brings up the ethernet interface ?

(I never scanned mine while installing to know. If you set the installer 
to use vnc, it definitely allow a vnc server port on the machine to let 
you connect in.)
