Hi Ralph,

thanks for your mail, here are your answers


> 1. which iso (with sha256sum)?

I tried both the beowulf 3.0.0 and 3.1.0 netinst images.
While I deleted 3.0.0, the sha256 of 3.1.0 is
1a6d240e66f4ed8db370fa53de516dfea89a1b466ebb5cdd8572abe024b6778c
devuan_beowulf_3.1.0_amd64-netinstall.iso


> 2. was it a cleared disk, or existing paritions?
I tried both. Initially it was a ssd in mint condition, I once tried to re-use
partitions but several attempts were made with deleting both the partitions
as well as the partition table.

> 3. which installation mode (default or expert)?
default

> 4. which partitioning?
tried both, manual and guided (use largest)

Default mirror as presented by the installer

> 10. which EFI brand and version?
Sorry, I'm lost here. The computer is a HP Elitedesk 705 G2 does this help? I
cannot find any useful info within the "bios" about a version apart from
something which looks very vendor-specific (N06 Ver. 02.17)

Kind regards,
Jonathan
