Fixed.

This is why the installation didn't work in the first place. We've 
managed to change the default kernel now. That should make the installer 
work again too, but I haven't tested that yet.

No GRUB by default was also a consequence of the missing kernel. Our 
intentions are to not repeat this incident in the future and GRUB isn't 
necessary for booting anyway, so I'm not going to mention this step on 
the wiki. If anyone sees a real need for it, feel free to edit.
