Comment:
update installation instructions; addimproved workaround for LTSP bug.

  
  A Debian Edu ISO isn't yet available; use the daily Debian Installer mini ISO; please note that an installation fails sometimes (kernel modules not availabe / problem with libc6-udeb); just try it a few days later, and always use the recent mini.iso:
   * wget -q https://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/amd64/daily/netboot/mini.iso
+   * Add 'modules=debian-edu-install-udeb' and 'desktop=xfce' (or mate, gnome, kde) as additional kernel params; also, if profile 'LTSP server' is wanted, add 'ltsp-client-builder/use_cdrom=false'. If running a dedicated apt caching proxy, you can add 'ltsp-client-builder/build-client-opts="--http-proxy=http://<IP>:<port>'.
+   * Even if deselected, the LTSP installation step is reported as 'failed'; see: DebianBug:888583. Workaround: When the Debian Edu profile screen is shown, open up a Debian Installer shell and run 'rm /var/lib/dpkg/info/kbd-chooser.*' 
-   * Add 'modules=debian-edu-install-udeb' as additional kernel param. If you want  to have also a desktop environment, add desktop=xfce (or mate, gnome, kde) in addition. LXDE seems to be broken atm, maybe due to a LXDE -> LXQt transition.
-  * Even if deselected, the LTSP installation step is reported as 'failed'; see: DebianBug:888583. To proceed:
-   * LTSP (skip; continue w/ grub item),
-   * Grub (select device, most probably the highlighted one),
-   * Debian Edu Profile (enforce menu order) (skip; proceed w/ finish install). If accidently this menus item is chosen, the installation will end up broken.
-   * To test LTSP server / client system choose the default profiles (combi server) and install the LTSP chroot after rebooting the main server running 'debian-edu-ltsp --arch i386'.
