Is the default MX boot a command line installer?

I first tried to boot MX by .iso before learning specific to MX it does not boot by .iso.

I tried extraction before finally getting it to boot by one of our USB utilities.

But lo and behold, MX boots to a command line installer.

Is this normal MX or am I just missing the LIVE version?

Unlike every modern distro I boot, the default boot is to a pre-X command line (usually an option).

v19.4 I recall.
