"All along" would include at a minimum the entirety of Dan's 28 November and 12
December postings on account of his single multiboot project, beginning
"Debian 8 and Debian 9 Dual Boot" 12 Nov 2017 22:27:36 -0500
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2017/11/msg00443.html
then
"Installer Can Not Find Root" 18 Nov 2017 21:26:33 -0500 (GMT-05:00)
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2017/11/msg00633.html
not just his/this "BIOS Can Not Find Disk" thread.
