Booting from UEFI somehow makes an internet connection mandatory in the installer

When you boot from UEFI and click get started, it wont let you continue without an internet connection
When you boot from legacy BIOS though, it will let you continue without internet but after you click install thoriumOS on this device, it will fail after about 5 minutes into the installation process.
Lets say you are in a situation where you dont have internet, in this case you wont be able to install thoriumOS.
@x325d Im not sure about the wifi thing, the installer I know is broken though. I updated the release notes. I am working on fixing it as we speak!
@x325d Installer should all be fixed. However, I noticed the whole BIOS versus UEFI letting you bypass/not bypass wifi.
This isn't a ThoriumOS thing though. The "reven" board overlay (the open source counterpart of ChromeOS Flex, which ThoriumOS transitioned to being based on top of rather than the "amd64-generic" board, in order to enable more features and support more hardware) also has this issue. ChromeOS Flex doesn't seem to have the issue in M120, but previous versions did. IDK what to say sir.
