+Starts the installation in debug mode. A console will be opened at several
+installation steps. This helps to debug the situation if something goes wrong.
+To exit a debug console, press `CTRL-D`. This option can be used to boot a live
+system with all basic tools available. You can use it, for example, to
+xref:chapter_zfs[repair a degraded ZFS 'rpool'] or fix the
+xref:sysboot[bootloader] for an existing {pve} setup.
+
+Advanced Options: Rescue Boot::
+
+With this option you can boot an existing installation. It searches all attached
+hard disks. If it finds an existing installation, it boots directly into that
+disk using the Linux kernel from the ISO. This can be useful if there are
+problems with the boot block (grub) or the BIOS is unable to read the boot block
+from the disk.
