I have two small low power boxes running for testing and dev work. They were running V4 and I wanted to upgrade to V5. One went fine, the other never finished the install.
Then I took it out of the cluster and did a manual install of v5.1 but that doesn't help either. It just crashes at the end of the install process. It seems the Realtek network chips are the issue.

I thought to be smart and use the build in WIFI but different from for example Ubuntu, there is no chance to use it during install.

Realtek has some linux drivers but I see no way to install them during the install/setup.

How can I get around this driver issue? Realtek
What has changed and why is it no issue in v4 but big issue in version 5.x?
