Re: install/53510: Can't install ISO on USB nor on DVD



"Drop to boot prompt" is choice 4 after

1/Install
2/Install  no ACPI
3/ Install no ACPI, no SMP

Whatever I choose, I always get a black screen, no cursor or anything else

You said you see the ACPI / no ACPI bootloader menu. It has an option
(5?) to drop to the boot prompt. Please use that and then try the
boot -c ... commands I suggested.

This should disable the drm/kms framebuffer for your video card
(just for debugging purposes) and should allow you to get to a login
prompt. If that works, we can try to get proper error messages from
the original failure and see how to fix that.
