Although an installed Ubuntu system supports HDMI, the Ubuntu installer
does not appear to support HDMI at all, so any system with only an HDMI
monitor effectively cannot have Ubuntu manually installed on it. Oddly,
the boot menu shows up on an HDMI monitor, but selecting any option
(e.g. "Install Ubuntu") causes the screen to go completely black, after
which nothing appears.
I encountered this problem on a Dell Inspiron 660s while attempting to
install Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. Strangely, the Mythbuntu installer works
perfectly fine with HDMI...
