Hmm, it seems that the numbers change every time, but here are the
ones from the last instance:

Phew, quite a work to type all this stuff, I am glad that you are
not interested in the stack... Perhaps this is useful.

In the meantime I noticed that about every 6th time it boots up
without crashing, but the keyboard setting from the installation
(German) was obviously not saved.

Peter.
