For installation, that is not very useful though, when you can use a
framebuffer, you can almost always do a graphical installation as
well. If you cannot do a graphical installtion, it is unlikely that a
text-mode framebuffer installation will work.

To use Georgian on a non-framebuffer VGA-Console, a Georgian font is
needed and I don't think we currently have one.
