a Chimera netinstall)
Greetings
This has become quite an odyssey!
I started by trying to do a chimera netinstall on a Lenovo e100 gen 2 laptop.
Found that the 5.10.x kernel in Chimera just doesn't want to play nice with
the eMMC ssd in the laptop.
Went to the Deadalus netinstall and thought I had a winner.
Silly me - - - - found some other 'fun'.
(Trying to use a Canadian multilingual keyboard - - - you then no longer have
a pipe symbol where it is written on the keyboard - - - - so back to American
English.)
Then well into the install - - - except the install halts at the screen :
"Preparing to configure devuan-keyring (amd64)"
and it sits there (and sits there and - - - you get the picture).
Tried a second time - - - still parks there.
Did some searching and there was a suggestion that if your system
clock was out there could be issues with getting the keyring to work.
Back to the laptop - - - - date set to sep 2020 and time off a bit.
Reset both with time as close as I could (40 odd seconds out - - - -
its not an easy to use clock!!). Time to try again.
Well - - - - now this is a 4th attempt and I'm still locked at the
keyring configure.
My netinstall software is NOT new (from early 2022 (April 11th in fact)).
