Well, not sure if I catched all you wrote (at least I got the one with the

Do you mean, I have to stay on my compter during the whole process of

Additional info: a few month ago, I downloaded Lion for my MBP, which was done 
quite easily. I still have a copy of this installation around on a external HD, 
but this one does not load on my new mini...

BTW, I tried relaunching, but with no avail...
