In principle following Adam's instructions, but then with the script I sent

Yes, that would be the goal. I must admit, for some reason I must almost
always reboot twice, something must be wrong with the order somewhere,
because I did have it working nicely one time. But that was some installs

In all day usage I'm running Intel only. It has all the 3D acceleration I
need for nice desktop candy and I don't need the HDMI.
