First, a huge shout out to /usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian.gz for
telling me that appending systemd.debug-shell to the linux line in
grub would let me run a shell even whilst the main boot couldn't drop
into an emergency shell. I think this should be writ in large friendly

Hello,
Noob question for y'all...
What is the functional difference between dpkg --get-selections and dpkg
--get-selections "*"?
It seems to me that the first command would find all packages anyway, making
the wildcard erroneous...perhaps I'm mistaken?
Thanks guys and gals!

Did you take a look here: https://www.debian.org/CD/verify , "Verifying
authenticity of Debian CDs"?
The https protocol would add quite some overhead to the download of the
iso-files which are already big by them self.

Install report-bug and run it. If everything gets filled in correctly
and report-bug can actually send an e-mail, the bug report will be filed
correctly with everything debian expects.
