package: installer

installing debian-live-10.7.0-i386-kde+nonfree.iso using the live option
and installing from the booted memory stick.

On an old x86 notebook, installation fails with an informative message, 

"bootloader-config failed, package grub-efi-amd64 is not available."

this looks like a goof related to the fact that this is a 32bit machine, but
whatever - what do I do about it?  The whole install process is automated,
except for partioning the disk.  The system is non-bootable, and even
if booted through some other magic, the file is still in some transitional
state.

Here's the result of booting the current live cd, and running the install item 
from the
desktop. Note that no network is set up at any point up to this message. Also
note this is on an old x32 laptop.

and as you can see here, the file system is in some intermediate loading state
and there's no grub-install in the path and no apparent advice about what to
do next.
