In my opinion, having a [Back] button disabled is the way to go if we
are anywhere in installation and the dialog is full-screen.

Keeping the [Back] button there (even if disabled) makes all the dialogs
unified in having all the buttons with the same functionality on the
very same places all over the installation. I remember we were talking
about this before.
