interesting enough -- I came to this bug without looking for the bugs related to this particular laptop (Compaq Presario 2100), but that is what I have ;)
I was trying to reinstall the beast using daily d-i netinst images for
squeeze. In my case, system freezes after a second whenever installer
menu appears. If I fill keyboard buffer with a keystroke before menu
appears, then menu reacts to the keypress (so if it was Enter -- it
proceeds with installation, ie screen gets back to black), but
nevertheless system freezes right away.
Is there any way I could help troubleshooting the issue? may be I could
test the last d-i image which was shipped without grub2 as the
bootloader? what was it?
Thanks in advance
