Hi Tyler,

No way! We're talking about an installer that is in an unknown state
after the initial beep and a single enter keypress.  Debian is not like
arch, where you could log into root without audio feedback very easily,
and have a prompt available. I have never seen a Debian installer that
could do that. After all, arch boots fine, it's Debian that fails to
talk, and hence is in an unknown state.

At least it's unknown to me! <smile>
