Comments/Problems:
Installation was done with a Braille display as
output device. So, the boot: option used was:
boot: Linux brltty=ts,tts/1,de
The display used is a TSI PowerBraille 80
After reboot, the braille display initialized properly
in the installed system on /dev/ttyS1 with the correct
translation table and everything.
Only problem was that kbd-chooser segfaulted, so I had to
ignore that and use US keyboard, also, mkswap did not appear
to work, but that was in no way fatal.
I used autopartkit, no manual partitioning/fs/mounting...

Thank you for your installation report! It is especially great to hear
that a braille install worked.=20
I'm pretty sure that the kbd-chooser segfault is fixed, so I am closing
this install report. If you would like to try an install again, and
verify that (and also verify that braille installs _still_ work..), that
would be excellent.
Thanks again.
