A working distro would be nice.

A support for this one will end in a period of a very intensive use
of that laptop so it will be a really bad moment to try to switch it
to F11.  Besides I would rather not do such things too often and you
can likely see why.  Are you absolutely convinced that F9 will not
bump into the same issues?  It is not that I did not see F10 working
on other boxes.  Yes, plural.

I may still get this turkey going but I hoped that somebody will
say: "Oh, I know that one".
