As a user, you do *not* want to use the installation OS¹ as a template for your own system: it’s way too specific to a live installation image and more complicated than a “regular” system. Instead, you’ll want to use one of the three templates that are provided. They’re in the manual² (which is on tty2 when you’re installing), and also in /etc/configuration during the installation. No need to download them from a non-obvious internet address. Am I missing something?
