Hi Ralph,

I went back to the netinstall iso since that is what you asked me to
verify this morning.

I used the plain install method.

blkid shows:
sda1,2,3 partitioned from a previous install attempt.
sdb type iso9660 which is the sd/usb with the netinstall image
sdc1 type iso9660
sdc2 type vfat

Yesterday with the server install attempt I had another sd/usb with the
CD3 iso. That is still plugged in and I guess is the sdc.

df -h
tmpfs     mounted on /run
devtmpfs  mounted on /dev
/dev/sdc1 mounted on /cdrom

Yesterday with the server, advanced/expert install method the cdrom was
not mounted. The mini-pc does not have an actual cdrom drive only a
bunch of usb ports.

The .disk directory does not exist. Do you want me to add it and the
info file?

Best regards,
Fred
