hmm, 'echo -ne "\033%G"' isn't needed for serial? My test environment (Windows + TeraTerm) needs this because drawing line. OK, it isn't so important. But, TERM_UTF8=yes and LANG=C.UTF-8 is really needed for serial console if we allow to choose non-English language. Without this, installer goes hang up a few minutes and falls back English (and won't work correctly). old patch in #263137 doesn't include escape sequence. Is it acceptable for all?
