Thank you for this, for some reason I didn't find my thread before. Still learning this forum ;-)

Sorry to get back only now, I did not find my topic Yeah, I can understand that it's hard to keep it up. My concerns were more about not seeing anything it is doing, which might be fine when everything is Ok, but not when they fail. The std err, for example, is a good source of information in this case: I imagine catching it somewhere and presenting it to the user after installation. But I'm not sure it is worth the effort maintaining. Because of my experience, I decided to not use Softy at all and install software rather from their source. So I installed Webmin from their website and it works fine. Syncthing was clearly failing to start, so I removed it, also because I realised I am not interested. Yeah, I removed it, using snapshots. What "technology" are you using for this Softy, btw?

Also got this: NetworkManager[723]: Libgcrypt warning: missing initialization - please fix the application What can it be?

From "dmesg -w" I got only NET: Registered protocol family 38 until the connection times out, doesn't seem too much. Unfortunately I don't have a serial log, I'll order an USB UART adaptor, but that will take a few days.

I installed a Debian Jessie on an Odroid HC1, and trying to connect an encrypted disk to it via USB. blkid lists the device: # blkid /dev/sdb1: UUID="2288876d-0fe8-4b5a-b7d1-1660df8b2e25" TYPE="crypto_LUKS" PARTUUID="c8895b7f-01" but when I try to open it with luksOpen: # cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb1 sdb1_crypted Enter passphrase for /dev/sda1: After entering the passphrase (and Enter), it hangs. The SSH connection times out after 1-2 minutes (where to enlarge?) and there is no HDMI on the HC1, so I am left blind. The disk was created and used in another system and worked perfectly on a Raspberry PI and my Linux PC. I created a key file and added it to /etc/crypttab, hoping the system will open it such, but no luck. I cannot connect to the board then, it doesn't set up even the network interface (it uses a wired Ethernet). It is on for 45 minutes now, and the 3 LEDs: blue and green on the Odroid, and the one at the disk are flashing or lighting continuously, but I don't know what is happening (cannot connect). The disk is connected through a powered USB HUB to the Odroid USB2 host port. What could be happening? Forum admins: can you pls. message me somehow if this is or not posted? I submitted another message a few weeks ago but could not find it on the forum ("Notify me of replies" is on, but I could not find even my post). Thanks,

Hi, I recently bought an Odroid HC1 and installed Debian 8 on it. I am being quite happy so far with the installation, however this softy installer is very frustrating. I tried to install Syncthing, which failed to start, then now Webmin, hoping to be of "smaller scale", but no lack. It repeatedly fails to do something, displaying the errors behind the curses window, so I had to stop it with Ctrl-C. Then I got back to the menu and after quit, a cleared screen. Brilliant. Are there logs stored somewhere, at least? I checked /var/log/, but got no further. Or how I am supposed to go through failing installations? Thank you,
