When you reach the "(I)nstall, (U)pgrade, (A)utoinstall or (S)hell?" prompt choose (S)hell. Then you can edit install.sub and/or install.md directly if you know how to use ed(1) or sed(1), or you can copy pre-edited files from somewhere else (a mounted file system, a thumb drive containing a tar image, ftp/http or nfs if you manually bring up the network, etc.) Once you're done, exit from the shell and the installer will restart, now with your changes. -ken
