Hello Karsten,

There may be an issue : yesterday evening, I only started the 
installation, just enough to verify the communication between the 
installer and the repositories. I didn't complete the installation.

Maybe I should try a (minimalist) installation and verify that the 
network is still working when the system reboots !

Do you think it is necessary ?

Regards

Jean-Louis Mounier
