     I didn't use the graphic installer. and I got the same problem as 
Robert, needing to run twice "install base system". I also remember 
reported overheating (related to the graphics card) were not observed in 
the graphic mode.


     Actually I never used the graphical installer; neither in Devuan 
nor ever in Debian. I'm perfectly happy with the curses mode and see 
absolutely no need for the graphic one. But its removal does wouldn't 
solve the issue.
