[TLDR](https://www.howtogeek.com/435266/what-does-tldr-mean-and-how-do-you-use-it/)
Set `debugmode=maximum`in `/etc/openhabian.conf` and see `/boot/first-boot.log` for image installation else record the terminal output.
:::
**Please do not ask for help on the forum unless you have _FULLY_ read this guide.**
**Attention:**
If you do not use the image but use `openhabian-config` manually - either to run `openhabian-config unattended` or interactive use -, **there is no logfile**.
To record output in this case, you need to configure your terminal client to record and save the command line output.

You’re right. I checked Github before posting but waited for a day. Meantime the issue was raised…
