Public bug reported:
I tried to install
http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/ubuntu-11.04-beta1-server-i386.iso
on VMware Workstation on Windows XP.
The bootloader runs in graphical mode but the installer runs in text mode.
However, due to vga=788 parameter which is automatically applied,
the screen remains in graphical mode and I can't see that the installer is
showing a "Select a language" prompt. It looks as if the system freezes
since nothing is visible in the graphical mode.
I had to remove the vga=788 parameter from the bootloader screen by pressing
F6 and editing the kernel command line.
