Easiest way would be to hook up a serial console and use this for installation
instead of a video framebuffer. You can switch to a second console to get
a bash prompt when installing over serial console by hitting "Ctrl-A-p".

When using debian-installer over serial console, it automatically starts
a GNU screen session to provide multiple consoles over a single serial line.

For a command reference for GNU screen, see [1].
