    Strange but true :\

    Same thing I saw last year and the year before that etc ...

    Can you check that radeonfb module was loaded ? I believe Alt+F2 gives
    you a shell during the install.

    Thanks for the reference. I was pretty sure that we've seen this bug before
    on PowerPC but I couldn't remember the bug. Thanks for digging it up.

    Adrian

    Thanks

    Computer says no. :) sorry.

    I checked /proc/modules and there is no radeon to be seen at all.

    $ dmesg | grep radeon
