There is no such thing as "1280x800" in text mode installation. It's text mode,
and it always uses 80x25. Using a wide screen display might change the
proportions on the display, but it does not change the number of available
lines or character cells (just count the lines in your screen shot).
As far as I can tell from your screen shot, it also doesn't use a frame buffer
console that changes the number of lines and/or character columns - everything
plain and normal 80x25 (80x24?) text mode.
It also doesn't use BIOS calls, but from what I hear it uses text fonts from
the graphics card's BIOS. This might be a first hint.
I just tested with Beta1 and Beta2, and it works fine for me.
