I can't do _anything_ from the menu I'm afraid and it's a remote box
with only serial console access so I can't swap VT :( Any option I
pick errors (which by itself is probably fine and completely my fault
AFAIK). The problem is that if the menu system is broken (say part of
the install process wiped / completely for example) then you get stuck
and can't "abort the installation" since that has several dependencies.
I'll try and reproduce on a local box to dig a bit deeper.
Thanks,
Adrian
