    Good news it got solved. Let us know when you need some other help.

    About installing from core an needing UEFI grub, until the devs find the time to fix the cli-installer, if you need to inatall again in the future, you could follow these steps.

    It is possible to install apps before running the installer.
    So anyone can actually install their ‘desktop’ before running the installer.
    This *should* work.

    eg for antiX-core (since it comes with wireless drivers)

    1. Boot live-usb (with or without persistence)
    2. login as root
    3. Use ceni to set up network
    3. apt update
    4. apt install xorg antix-installer jwm (I chose jwm since it is tiny)
    5. startx
    6. open a terminal and type minstall and follow the instructions
    7. If you want to set keyboard as shown on the first screen, you also need to install fskbsetting
    8. Enjoy!

    And thanks for editing the thread title. It will help others if they ever have this problem again in the future.
