I used the following two files to construct an installer SD card: http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch-proposed-updates/main/installer-armhf/20170615+deb9u5+b3/images/netboot/SD-card-images/firmware.Wandboard.img.gz http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/stretch-proposed-updates/main/installer-armhf/20170615+deb9u5+b3/images/netboot/SD-card-images/partition.img.gz I could completely install a base system on a Wandboard Quad without any surprises. It works fine. (Well, it didn't reboot by itself at the end of the installation and needed a press of the reset button, but the chances that this is related to this bug are very small.) I also did an install on an Odroid-XU4, using the partition.img.gz from above but a "firmware" taken from the running system because Debian doesn't seem to provide them for d-i. It worked up until the moment it could not find a network card. I presume the reason is that d-i doesn't include the various drivers needed for USB host on a Samsung Exynos5422 SoC, which is again unrelated to this bug. I didn't have a lot of time on my hands and I have forgotten how to switch to a shell when d-i is running on a serial port :-D, so I gave up. It worked perfectly up until that moment.
