Thanks for the suggestions folks but there's not much to see
there, no packages are pinned.
I've made some progress, though. A closer look at the output

After apt-get update, attempting to install ntp tries to

When you install Debian on a PC, you get one line in

If you add a network adapter after installation,

can do it for you ?

In bash, typing, say, "ls x*y" then tab lists all the possible
expansions of "x*y" on the next line, then prints the command
line anew with "x*y" replaced by longest common stem.
With bash-completion installed, "x*y" is summarily replaced by

for all your monitor-related configurations,
apt-get install get-edid (or is it read-edid ??)
then read-edid | parse-edid (or is it get-edid | parse-edid ??)

Well, i'm sorry i'm really not an expert, but maybe you should

Most probably your bios/partition program uses LBA adressing, and linux does
