I would like to avoid all kind of "hells" in this case because I'm going
to do this install on someone elses machine. On the other hand, perhaps
the worst case scenario would be eciadsl not working and me having to
look at an error message on the screen? I suppose using apt-get install
is not possible in this situation - apt-get is for installing from
repositories only?

No damage done :-) You already helped me to clear my thoughts.
