Apologies for mixing up the names of the installers. Yeah, by live CD I meant 
Calamares, sorry about that.

I'm going to summarize the results with each installer and each ISO I used.

I used two ISOs, both from April 18th

- debian-live-testing-amd64-gnome.iso
- debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso

debian-live-testing-amd64-gnome.iso with live GNOME session and clicking on the 
"Install Debian" - OK

debian-live-testing-amd64-gnome.iso with either Graphical installer or Text 
installer via the boot menu - OK

debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso with either Graphical installer or Text 
installer, installing only system utilities - Does not install a working system.
  - Passing systemd.unit=emergency.target via boot arg opens a 
    console.
  - Passing systemd.unit=rescue.target via boot arg does not open 
    a console.

debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso with either Graphical installer or Text 
installer, installing system utilities and GNOME - Does not install a working 
system.
  - Passing systemd.unit=emergency.target via boot arg does not
    open a console.
  - Passing systemd.unit=rescue.target via boot arg does not open 
    a console.

Hope this summary helps.
