Thanks, I have tested the installation of FreedomBox from the blends selection screen. It works, but there are some 
debconf questions from depended-on packages (nslcd, slapd, libnss-ldapd) that we would rather skip if possible. But, 
even just clicking through those questions with the default answers, I was able to complete the installation and reboot. 
After a few minutes, the FreedomBox web interface was available.
