Please, try the same process using:

http://mirrors.gnuinos.org <http://mirrors.gnuinos.org/?dir=DEVUAN-BASED%20IMAGES>

It is based on devuan, but the installers are different. Devuan installs all the *.deb packages in the target; while gnuinos mounts the filesystem.squashfs on it. Before compiling the content of the chroot jail with the final porpuse of getting the squashfs file, i always remove /etc/fstab from the jail. If i don't remove it, the personal home folder of the user doesn't be created (i don't know the reason why). I always do (/,/home/,sawp) manual partition with no issues. It would be interesting to compare both results.

Thanks,

Aitor.

I've booted the Alpha2 iso but it doesn't seem to be able to find any partitions. From the partition menu ("LVM" 
"Guided" or "Manual") I select "Manual" but then get a dialog stating "No root file system

I have a 4G raw partition as /dev/sdb1 (formatted with ext4 and set 'active')  which I 
intend to use for "/" and then use LVM for /usr, /var, /home and /tmp. I have 
Ubuntu installed on some of the LVM partitions and thought if Devuan is not working for 
me, I can still boot back into the Ubuntu install so I don't want to re-partition the 
entire disk as it would hose my current desktop setup.

Any way to manually kick off the install from the CLI ?
