I've written there.

I've rerun the installation and tried all possible options (I think), but none of them took me to a
screen like

I thought I read VNC is not recommended. I might try, thanks.

PS: just a couple of remarks on your notes about the network on the Post-Install

1) wlan0 has ONBOOT=yes, which might confuse things. I removed it.

2) the netowrk service does not start by default, so ONBOOT=yes on eth0 is not enough after a reboot.
I had to install system-config-services to enable the network service (but there must be a text only
methond)
