We work over the field of complex numbers. (But remarks in characteristic $p$ are very welcome.)
Let $S$ be a finite set of points in $\mathbb{A}^1$ containing $0$ and $1$. [Edit: Assume $S$ contains only algebraic numbers.]
Do $\mathbb{A}^1-S$ and $\mathbb{A}^1-\{0,1\}$ have a finite etale cover in common?
That is, does there exist a curve $X$, a finite etale morphism $X\to \mathbb{A}^1-S$ and a finite etale morphism $X\to \mathbb{A}^1-\{0,1\}$?
For which $S$ is the answer positive?
