  He started the graphical install, selects the English language, then
the United States as the timezone location, then the United States as
the location of the Devuan mirror.

  Next he chose us.mirror.devuan.org as the package manager mirror (the
other choice being auto.mirror.devuan.org) and the error windows shows
up with:

##########################################################
# Bad archive mirror
# An error has been detected while trying to use the specified Devuan
archive mirror.
#
# Possible reasons for the error are: incorrect mirror specification;
mirror is not available
# (possibily due to an unreliable network connection); mirror is broken
(for example
# because an invalid Release file was found); mirror doe not support the
correct Devuan
# version.
#
# Additional details may be available in /var/log/syslog or virtual
console 4.
#
# Please check the specified mirror or try a different one.
##########################################################


  I'd suggest Gaston to do check is some error message in
/var/log/syslog could help pinpointing the source of the error and to do
try selecting another repository server.  And of course to check if the
network is configured correctly, if he can resolve and ping
us.mirror.devuan.org.
