Encryption page - no option for no encryption Given the size of the window I was suspecting that there must be areas not shown on the screen. So, I killed (xkill) the installation then changed display settings to 1024x768 and behold - now I can see the install buttons! Figure 3. Change display settings to 1024x768 After changing screen resolution, buttons are now visible during installation.
