Hmm! Does it a bit weird!

Accessibility options? I will have to try next time I reinstall. Could you provide me with more information about it? I can't even understand what you are saying about "Accessibility options" right during the installation. lbrtchx

If you file a bug, make sure the model number is specific (which I think yours is). As it works normally, you might also give specifics about the touchpad (or whatever it is that doesn't work).

I take it that Bil[d?]schirmbild means Screenshot: yes, it does appear that TABbing doesn't reach that button (including using modifiers). Would you be able to navigate the cursor over the button by using the Accessibility options (2nd item I think) to select 'moving the cursor with the arrow keys' (assuming that's available). (I'm afraid I normally use the non-graphical option, remote installation via ssh, and scrot, to take screenshots.) Cheers, David.

entirely keyboard based installation ...
I was installing Debian yesterday and my mouse wasn't working (a Leneovo Netbook X130e). I tried to tab through to the „Bilschirmbild“ option, but could not reach out to it because that option was being skipped!? That shouldn't be and/or I wonder what the reason for that obstruction could be. lbrtchx
