What I was suggesting was that you try running something like:

  unset TERMCAP
  TERM='linux'
  export TERM
  /sbin/debian-installer /bin/network-console-menu

to see if that allows it to run without crashing.

It might well look wrong, with broken line-drawing etc. but if it runs
without crashing then at least that points us at the cause of the
problem.

Cheers, Phil.
