Things I consider are these (during the installation): . I have working connection . I have at least working kernel and later diver services that are configured and started during the install . At the same time no firewall rules are applied at the working (starting to work) system (before it is going to be rebooted - that is also is waited for the user attention - does not reboot itself). That's what is of interest. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
