I reassign this report to installation-guide for possible inclusion of the
above hint.
Regarding the other issues mentioned in this report: they are covered by
criteria for my mass-closing of old installation-reports, and get closed:

But anyway: thank you for filing this installation bug report, it has been
very useful at the time it was filed!
If you know, that the issue you reported (and gets closed here) is still existing
in recent installation images, please file a new report for that!
Thanks
Holger
