I am about to reinstall my system to get rid of a minor nuisances, so it would be a good time to try it. The main thing is, I have my own sources.list which replaces the default Debian/Devuan sources.list, and my list includes TDE repositories. So if there is a way to get my own sources.list recognized during the process, that would save me at least an hour of time when doing a system reinstallation. Not sure if we are talking about quite the same thing, so just to be clear: I am installing Devuan using an image on a flash drive. If there is a way to get my sources.list recognized during installation (or better yet, to write my own sources.list over the default, so that the TDE repositories are available during installation of a new system), for myself that would be like discovering fire or inventing stone tools.
