As mentioned in [ticket:9128#comment:7], NetworkStatus is capable of
locking Deskbar when net_server is not running.
While thinking of the various combinations isFirstBoot, isReadOnly,
isSafeMode along with what the user may do in those scenarios (e.g., boot
CD into safemode and install to a writable device vs. dd anyboot to a USB
stick and do a first boot into safemode, as Haiku didn't fully boot in
normal mode), the most complete solution I can think of is to modify
NetworkStatus to gracefully install itself into Deskbar when net_server is
not present.
Perhaps a new network status icon could be made to indicate the lack of
net_server? Or would that qualify as kNetworkStatusNoConnection?
