OK, I just did (step 1, the installer). Writing from my new install on
real hardware. The installation took 6 minutes on an old core2 with 2G
ram.

One glitch, simple to fix.. on first boot slim puked, the installer
had failed to sort etc/slim.conf for the new username. I used startx,
edited manually and rebooted, now all is good.

One more. The rather elegantly styled grub menu lists "GNU/Linux" or
"Unknown Linux Distribution", it didn't parse "Devuan". This was
discussed before, I can't remember just now how I fixed that on my
other install..
