Package: debian-installer
Severity: wishlist


I think the initial boot screen should mention somewhere how to start
the graphical installer. The text installer is the default, but without
any kind of notification, a user would never use the graphical
installer, unless he happens to know about it or reads the manual (most
don't, of course).
