Hi,
Thank you for your support.
- the installer needed noapic;
Yes the installer worked better with the noapic option. Better means
with less delays. The system was always booting but it was getting
slower and slower after some time with the liveCD.
However, after I changed made some BIOS it's working better and I
don't need now the noapic option:
What I changed in the BIOS: "OS Select" from "Win 8" to "Win
7/Other OS" and "CSM Parameters" to "Enabled" with all options to
"Legacy Only".
Now I only have Debian installed. Win 8 is out.
- the installed system is having kernel oopses in the proprietary fglrx
module?
This question I didn't understand very well. I think you mean the
ATI driver. The system was working before without the ATI driver
installed and I only got this error:
[ 1.017799] PCI-DMA: Using software bounce buffering for IO (SWIOTLB)
[ 1.017802] Placing 64MB software IO TLB between ffff88008a278000

After installing the ATI Driver it's worse and freezing for more time.
I hope this helps!
Regards,
Kelvin
