If you boot to GRUB, 'Graphical > Install' should be using that. And that's plain wrong. I want to run D-I on my monitor. Nevermind is it text mode one or gtk one. My board does not require serial console to boot as I have graphical output in U-Boot and can control it using USB keyboard. And I prefer text mode D-I over gtk one. > However, that image is currently broken due to a kernel version > mismatch and won't actually install, try the weekly build instead: > > https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/arm64/iso-cd/debian-testing-arm64-netinst.iso Thanks. Works like a charm.

Can you try booting the gtk one? If you boot to GRUB, 'Graphical Install' should be using that. However, that image is currently broken due to a kernel version mismatch and won't actually install, try the weekly build instead: https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/arm64/iso-cd/debian-testing-arm64-netinst.iso

Panfrost shouldn't be necessary for a working framebuffer. On my rk3399-gru-kevin, rockchipdrmfb handles that and d-i runs on the screen just fine. Which device are you having this issue with?
