on the other hand, I forgot to tell that:
when I press F4 at the bootloader prompt, it suggests the option
"video:vga16:off" but that is useless
instead, the suggestion "vga=771" may be added both to the F4 menu
and to the ERRATA page (in the debian-installer web page)
bye
and anyway congratulations on the good work: debian-installer rocks
