Re: CD or DVD image that works for Bullseye RC3
You will need to go into the numbered menu during install. You need to
set message priority to low which asks the most questions once done. You
also want to choose save log files and store those on disk. All of those
log files left on /mnt will need to be sent to debian-boot in order for
you to get some help. I do this routinely whenever doing a debian install
simply asa defensive measure. You get the numbered menu by hitting the <
sign at prompts until the numbered menu shows up. That'll have about 25
choices in it and hitting enter in that menu does the next default part of
the installation. You likely will get into the numbered menu after
networking gets set up.
