Yes, it requires a complete installation. This is because a) we have to bring SSH up and b) network configuration is currently in one step, so we cannot configure a basic config and later ask for more details, such as DNS. How common is it for DHCP servers not to send gateway and DNS information? > After I connected to QNAP via ssh and downloaded installer components, I > was presented with a list of languages to choose from.

Some languages using Latin scripts were missing too. Why? I cannot remember the reason for this; maybe someone else can comment. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
