Comments/Problems:

Errors out on base install from both images.
On the 3rd console I get:

setting up base config (2.40.3) ...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 exim4-daemon-light
 at
 exim4
 exim4-config
 mailx
 exim4-base
umount /target/dev/pts Invalid argument
umount /target/dev/shm Invalid argument
umount /target/proc/bus/usb Invalid argument

If I scroll back I see that those are all dependency problems.  exim4-config
fails with:

error while loading shared libraries: libgnutls.so.10: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory

and the rest of them fail because of exim4-config.

On the plus side, it does have the tg3 driver which can successfully
detect and configure the Broadcom gigabit NICs on this motherboard.
