Well, in that case we should also add that _ctrl_+atl-F2 is needed to switch 
to the shell.

Instructions for the graphical installer are not yet really integrated in 
the manual. We currently have this in an appendix (see D.6).
However, I'll add the alt-f5 tip there and add a link to the appendix from 
6.3.8.2.

The manual is currently frozen for an upload, but I'll add it after that.

Thanks for the suggestion,
FJP
