Uh, I wish I could edit my 2 posts above out. My problem was simple. After installing from the mini.iso, I was running an installation script that has a command of the form:
sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends package1 package2 package3 . . . It always worked before. But one of those packages no longer exists and apparently apt-get just doesn't anything on a list like that when ANY of them are missing. There was an error message but it only refered to the one package so I falsly assumed it was getting the others. So I didn't have openbox.
