After a long battle, the notebook now starts correctly ... but to
fix the boot issue I had to install W10 (UEFI).

So now I'm trying to reinstall it with Devuan, but I can't.

Using beowulf netinstaller (3.1.1), it starts with a blocking error:

~~~
        Loading Devuan beowulf installer in standard mode...

        error: invalid sector size 0
        error: you need to load the kernel first.
~~~

Please help!
