Hi Tyler,

No way! We're talking about an installer that is in an unknown state
after the initial beep and a single enter keypress.  Debian is not like
arch, where you could log into root without audio feedback very easily,
and have a prompt available. I have never seen a Debian installer that
could do that. After all, arch boots fine, it's Debian that fails to
talk, and hence is in an unknown state.

Chuck

At least it's unknown to me! <smile>

Original thought is like original sin: both happened before you were born
