Thanks for the feedback, but I think my case is not the same as in the
bug you send me. My computer is not Intel, it is an AMD64. So as I have
read it should work nice. I don't even get to see the installation
screen (gfxboot) it just stays black. Anyone knows why this happens? Is
somebody having the same issue? Again, thanks a lot.
