  All right, today I redid the installation.  Same laptop, same DVD:
devuan_ascii_2.0.0-beta_i386_DVD
  Just two changes: I did not select the Italian language and I chose the TUI
install over the graphical one.
  I found the HD partitionned the way I set it up on the first install, so I
went ahead and defined the crypt partitions and their filesystems.  And the
installation went ahead!
  But the joy did not last long: after it configured the ethernet connection
via DHCP, I selected the packages.devuan.org mirror to get the packages
from.  And I stumbled on this message:

                        [!!] Configuring libssl1.0.2:i386

        /media/cdrom/: Please insert the disc labeled: 'Debian GNU/Linux
        2.0.0-beta _Ascii_ - Official i386 DVD Binary-1 20180213-21:10' in
        the drive '/media/cdrom/' and press [Enter].

  Which was a show stopper.  Did I do something wrong?


  Bye,


Alessandro
