Why do FTP installs still default to text mode? I noticed that I can
start a graphical FTP install with a boot parameter "graphical".
Considering that the text install can't do LVM, I think it is
important that we default to graphical.

They default to graphical if you have "enough" RAM (> 128 megs, iirc) to
keep the stage2.img in RAM and do a successful graphical install.
Otherwise, we fall back to text mode.
Also, note that there is (minimal) LVM editing in text mode now.

I just did an FTP install on a 512MB system, and it still defaulted to
text. I needed to delete all LVM stuff and start over, and I wasn't
able to do that from text mode. "graphical" boot worked fine.
