I can skip the network setup of netinst. But I can't skip the part when I
have to choose a Debian mirror?
After the installer fails to setup the network dmesg | grep -i firmware
returns:
"[ 0.904131] pci 0000:00:1f.0: [Firmware Bug]: TigerPoint LPC.BM_STS
cleared"
I wanted to install an ISO image but there are 52 cd images and another
10 update images. I suppose I would had to download and use all of them
to install?
Best regards
