Subject: [DNG] Simple install of devuan daedalus fails
The GPU chip on my motherboard died, and so I inserted a Gigabyte video card.

The GRUB menu shows the netinst on key only if I replug the key.

The Grub menu is then

debian Samsung 1 TB SSD
UEFI: VendorC
UEFI: VensorC ... partition 2

I have always done an expert installs but instead now try a normal
install of daedalus on the 1 TB SSD

As preamble flashes by something about genirq flags mismatch;
flags mismatch

I do not load missing firmware but am nevertheless able to
configure the network manually. Wireless connection suceeds.

For partitioning I use guided for entire disk with all files in
one partition.

Current overview of partitions:

/dev/nvme0n1 I choose this as install target. It currently has
an ESP, a 1 GB and a swap partition

/dev/nvme1n1 is 2 TB disk with all partitions deleted,

SCSI2 has one FAT16 partition and is used for storage.

SCSI7 is the netinst key

SCSI4 is bootable disk with 12 partiions

I am told that partitions on /dev/nvme0n1 have changed and for
the 1 TB disk /dev/nve0m1t the ESP, ext4 and swap partitions will
be formatted.

Software is installed.
I choose sysvinit
GRUB bootloader is autaomatically installed

I try to boot the 1 TB disk and get:

/dev/nvme0n1p2: clean ...
INIT: version 3.06 booing
INIT: No inittab.d directory found
Using makefile-style concurrent boot in runlevel S
