I've made some testing and bug seems only reproducible with LUKS2

Not only experts should be able to do an install party; some more people
wants to share small knowledge and experiences.
If you *will* be connected to the internet you *will* need to install
security updates;
Internet is not the only source for packages (&updates). If someone
installs Debian on 3 computers (or repeats installation 3 times), it
shouldn't mean to use 3x internet traffic repeating installer downloads.
Many people may feel this matter is not important because most of
installations are for traditional PCs, but there are other scenarios
such as TV devices, phone/tablets, VM, etc. with less internal space.
When user selects to (yes) install boot manager, the wizard asks where
to do the grub-install.
Currently, default option in the dialog is to introduce manually the
target path. I propose to change default option by the already detected
path.

"You have not selected any partitions for use as swap space..."
And default option is to return to the partitioning menu.
This is very confusing to unexperienced users and nonsense with
computers with lots of RAM.

One way to make and complete an offline installation is to select "No
network card", but this produces a non-sense warning talking about
loading drivers, etc. and inviting to change the selection.

At final stage of interactive installation, the suggested target for

instead of manual introduction.
