I think Dan (SR) may have helped, while booted to th d-i, I recall seeing
an odd sdb that was likely it, better than than a WAG for sure. Now if I
can get the tde list to disgorge a trinity.list for /etc/apt/sources.d, I
might have that famous snowballs chance of making this next install
actually work for more than 4 or 5 days at a reboot.
Thanks David.
