Description craig gardner 2005-09-08 15:05:07 UTC
Beta 4 installs from DVD just fine, but after packages are installed and the
first reboot, then selecting "Liunx" from grub, the system just hangs, showing a
blank screen.  

This is HP DL385, dual core 1.8 GHz Opteron with two processors.  SCSI disks
using hardware raid.

Grub comes up fine, and shows the three options: Linux, Linux (Failsafe), and
Floppy.  (There's even the nice background showing the Provo campus.)

Selecting "Linux" results in the blank screen, no keyboard interrupt, and the
hung system.  Since I have no keyboard control at this point, I can't even try
to switch to any other console to see kernel/console messages.

Selecting "Linux (Failsafe)" seems to work, though.  So perhaps this is an ACPI
problem.

Somehow got logged twice.  Dup of 115891
