I burned it to a cd 2. I booted it and waited to hear the drive stop turning 3. I pressed the s, that is, lowercase s, and waited for the installer script to start running 4. I followed all the perfectly straightforward steps in the installation script and now have this perfect CLI-only system I am working with as I write this. I want to thank all you nice folks over there at Debian accessibility for this accessible CLI script. What is it, a bash script? that's what I am thinking it is. You have helped me have a system that is orders of magnitude faster than it was with a graphical distribution on it, and you have helped me "say goodbye to guiwood." This is great!! Doug Smith
