Package: debian-installer
Version: 20250803+deb13u4
In my opinion, there is the following problem in the
debian-13.4.0-amd64-netinst.iso procedure:
If an USB-uart adapter CP210x is detected during installation, the system
is built-up and configured for a visual impaired user, with brttly and
speech-dispatcher automatically activated at boot.
Should the CP210x be an interface to something else than a visual aid
device,
disabling or de-installing brttly and especially speech-dispatcher is a
nightmare, that normally makes the system unbootable.
In my case, the CP210x was an interface to a radio receiver.
The workaround was to remove the CP210x adapter during the installation.
But it took a full day of trials to spot the problem.
The choice that the CP210x is for aid to a visual impaired user and not for
some other device should not be automatic and opaque. Alternatively, users
should be warned to remove their USB CP210x during installation.
Compliments for your wonderful work with debian.
