There is a remaining problem: by default, keyboard is configured to use
old keymap, macintosh_old, that is for old kernel (older than 2.4, not
for old macintosh) and console is unusable like this with 5.3.0 kernel:

  # cat /etc/default/keyboard
  # KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE

  # Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.

  XKBMODEL="macintosh_old"
  XKBLAYOUT="us"
  XKBVARIANT=""
  XKBOPTIONS=""

  BACKSPACE="guess"

A correct configuration should use XKBMODEL="macintosh".

Is it possible to update the configuration set by default by the installer?

Thanks,
Laurent
