I haven't tested this but when doing an install over serial console,
the installer runs in GNU Screen so it is possible to switch to the
different terminal by the usual Screen key combinations, e.g. ctrl-a
then space. This was not obvious to me for many years.

Perhaps it is the same on the network console?

Indeed it is!

Thanks for the hint! I've been wondering about it for years. :)

Cheers!
