Package: debian-installer

Dear Maintainer,
I'm installing a Debian Testing using the weekly build 20200907 and the screen
is corrupted and unreadable on my system.
The problem comes either with the graphical install and the expert install;
however if I remove the VGA=788 parameter from the boot line the expert install
screen is ok.
Didn't test the graphical install without this parameter.
I'm using a Radeon Vega 56 gpu.
Andrea
