1.  Internet is not necessary, it is already downloaded.  Just make sure the 
Installer is in your Applications folder, and you are good to go.

2.  Install process should take 45 minutes to an hour.  I suggest starting the 
install, and then go to bed.  When you get up, it will be done.

3.  When the install process is complete, VoiceOver will prompt you to login or 
whatever your Mac does when you turn it on.

Be sure to do a backup of your important stuff just in case something goes bad. 
 I’ve done the upgrade process many times, and never had a problem, but better 
safe than sorry.

I finally downloaded Catalina on my Mac Mini and am planning to install it. is 
the internet used for that or since it's been downloaded does it not use the 
internet for the install? what's a reasonable amount of time to expect the 
install to take? what happens when it's done? in other words, how will I know 
when it's done?

thanks.
