I had tried that too. In that case the screen becomes gray and nothing
visible happens. Clearly something changed in Debian itself, because

When using netinst iso to install Debian, one is offered the
possibility of guided install with encrypted LVM. if such a choice is
made the installer fills the partition with random data. That is
generally the correct thing to do but in some cases that is not needed
or desired and it is an inconven

Hiya,
I tried to install Sid (on a VirtualBox VM) following the instructions
in [1], section "Use the Unstable "mini.iso" image.". I downloaded the
