We're talking about /var/log/installer being missing? That would be a first for me for an installation when the “Installation complete” screen is displayed (that's shown by finish-install). > I'd be happy to provide any more information that I can. If there are really no logs after installation, maybe you could redo the installation, check what's in /target/var/log/installer when that screen is displayed, and save dmesg/syslog before rebooting? Good luck. KiBi.
