Nice results, Paul :-)

and Israel, although I find bugs and glitches, I agree with Paul, that
this script for the mini.iso is a great step forward :-)

Maybe some (dummy?) command needing sudo can be put early in the script
in order to start a 10 or 15 minutes wake for further sudo calls.

-o-

I should also make you aware, that such a default installation on top of
a default mini.iso installed system will *not* have a portable wired
network. It is no problem when installed into an internal drive, where
it is supposed to stay.

But when you create a tarball, you must make the network portable,
otherwise the tarball will not make systems with working networks when
expanded into other computers.

I confirmed this problem by installing into a USB 3 pendrive and moving
the pendrive to another computer.

Best regards
