I tried a few things but still no victory.

Btw. Before installation I had to manually 'randomize' my disk
otherwise the installation program would claim there are some tasks
already done (e.g. when 1st trying to use only fossil and then
restarting the installation and wanting venti as well, it was somehow
satisfied with the previous partition division, though there was not
arenas...).

Anyway, I could install the system and boot, but after a short time
(say 20 s) I get a lot of messages and the system freezes. I am
sending a picture depicting this.
I really don't understand what's wrong...

Is it ok to use an old installation (which, if I remember, worked for
me) disk and then simply run pull?
Do I get the same system then as with the new installation disk?

Thanks
Ruda
