Package: installation-reports Severity: normal Tags: patch Currently the boot option debian-installer/framebuffer does not work as documented in the Instalation Manual, section 5.2.1. "Debian Installer Parameters" (it does not work at all). This issue was raised by Bugs #272552 and #272562. Geert Stappers developed the attached patch. I'm opening this new report to keep the patch around. Jö. -- There's no evolution in the US. It's not allowed.
