Hmmm, I press enter initially, lots of stuff flickers by, then the screen just goes blank apart from a line with 640 x by 480 or something similar. Pressing enter then does nothing. > > > Any ideas, or do you know of an image that will work? > > The text-based debian installer should just work. Ok, I was testing with that. Got a bit further, with the initial flickering messages, but still stuck after with the 600 by 480 line... As I said pressing enter a second time after this does nothing. > > > BTW, just out of curiosity, it may help me convert people to linux, > > could a blind person load windows this way and run a windows > > screenreader and use the guest os (windows)? > > Yes, but setting up the screenreader will probably need the help of a > sighted user. hmm cool.
