The Sarge installer is not finished yet, in the first boot the installer setup the apt.sources, and then download any update available , and then I can install anything I want ( like ssh ) so before it can not do anything . The goal is power the machine and never more power off, remove keyboard and mouse and use ssh/webmin to manage everything . Fábio Rabelo
