@haydar70 What happened? Did you get any errors?
Show threadHaydarMay 1, 2017
@shellkr on one machine the installation (from usb key) freezed during boot, on another box i saw only weird artifacts

@haydar70 How much RAM did you have on that box? When you install from usb everything goes into RAM. If that is an issue you might have to mount and use the disk instead.

@shellkr one box has 2 GB RAM, the other 4GB. I don't think that this is the cause of the problem

@haydar70 wait… "from the USB key"? My guess, the key is buggy – have had the problem with "cheap" sticks years ago w Debian installations.

@grmpyoldman maybe so, even if I tried 2 different keys (but same model).

@haydar70 cheapo-sticks? I forgot the name of the ones I had used - I threw them away.
Show threadHaydarMay 1, 2017
@grmpyoldman yes, they were cheap. OTOH a Debian installation from the very same key works well.

@haydar70 hm. Sounds good. as proposed you have checked the checksum of the image on the stick?
Show threadHaydarMay 1, 2017
@grmpyoldman yes, I did. Checksum was okay.
