of course this means that the DVD installer has nonfree on it's DVD (or
have a separate media for that, which is less easy)

add here, also nfs/iSCSI/http/...

in fact that screen should be redone and done differently:

[X] this media (DVD or whatever)
[ ] media from mirrors [dropdown with mirror] (by default automatic)
[ ] (here the media added from advanced is added when closing advanced)
------------
[X] updates
[ ] nonfree
[ ] tainted
[ ] backports
[ ] testing
[ ] debug
+ button advanced with custom media (for urpmi-proxy or local media for
instance)
