I tried the 2019.04 Text USB installer. It worked, installing all the way 
through and booting up okay.

Then I tried your Live USB installer. It installed all the way through, but 
upon boot it just sits there with a blinking underscore cursor. No other text 
on screen, nothing appears to happen before that.

I want to note that during this Live installation, there is a missing driver 
according to the DDU: 
Intel Corporation 8 Serices HECI #0             UNK

Also, the installation results have been inconsistent. I had to try the text 
installer twice, because the first time there was an error:
nwadm: start_dhcp: ipadm_create_addr failed…

Also, the Live installer has been inconsistent. The first time installed, as I 
said above, but the second try ended with the screen going black, the computer 
hung, and the keyboard unusable. I’m going to try the Live one again, and then 
I’ll try your latest Text USB installer next.
