With a regular mini.iso (cdebconf-gtk-udeb built against GTK+2), on the start-up screen, the label is missing; switching to a VT and back gets us the needed refresh and label; without the VT switch, proceeding to the next screen is sufficient to get it as well. With a patched mini.iso (cdebconf-gtk-udeb built against GTK+3), the label is missing as well; the VT switch dance gets it back; but NOT going to the next screen.
