Re: CD or DVD image that works for Bullseye RC3
If you can get into the numbered menu, before booting into the new system
you might try executing a shell and then run dmesg >dmesg.txt and then run
grep -in string-of-interest dmesg.txt and see what you can discover.
I have never tried that so don't know if these commands will work in the
install shell you'll get.
