I've installed it without any problem and have not faced any screen
flashing. Installing from -current bsd.rd worked even without
framebuffer. After installation, framebuffer is present and working.
But I've done everything with -current, I wasn't able to even boot
without kernel panic (some ACPI related stuff) when using 5.3.
