I've had it work that way Martin, but it's not working for Glenn. I also don't understand what you mean by "I start the installer with medium priority" - I've never seen a choice.
It should be an explicit choice to have a configured Debian Command Line Interface (CLI) Text Mode. It should be there for people who need it. Many blind users won't deal with a graphical interface and some of them aren't computer savy, they need something easy, an explicit choice. Debian CLI Vinux is ancient. Maybe we should take a collection up to sponsor one of the Debian Developers to take it on and update it? Debian CLI DNA version (minimal) would be an excellent candidate for Debian Net Installer at 198 MB. https://archive.org/download/vinux-debian-cli-distro/Vinux-CLI-dna-2.1.iso md5sum 56214d76821fb68e995f29164e4f3f22 Vinux-CLI-dna-2.1.iso Debian CLI Standard version would also be a good candidate for a great CLI system. https://archive.org/download/vinux-debian-cli-distro/Vinux-CLI-std-2.1.iso md5sum 978d5e69a82d02f9d3db84a9acf94d5f Vinux-CLI-std-2.1.iso While the Debian CLI Max version had every console program we could think of. https://archive.org/download/vinux-debian-cli-distro/Vinux-CLI-max-2.1.iso md5sum 6e464f38f0dc8fc834ee8a367a529f68 Vinux-CLI-max-2.1.iso There were also two GUI versions. See them here. The standard size GUI: 52b8b74dcaf801bf53acd0e876797ee8 Vinux-GUI-2.1.iso https://archive.org/download/vinux-debian-cli-distro/Vinux-GUI-2.1.iso The kitchen sink size GUI 6d7a3e0176c5878d33be3ccd9af37284 Vinux-GUI-leviathan-2.1.iso https://archive.org/download/vinux-debian-cli-distro/Vinux-GUI-leviathan-2.1.iso Ubuntu versions - GUI only because Ubuntu has NO text installer! https://sourceforge.net/projects/vinuxproject/ They were never as good as the Debian version because they didn't have CLI.
