Colin, Thanks a lot for your prompt answer.
I assume whether people use the F6 key + nomodeset or a TRY LUBUNTU WITHOUT INSTALLING (NOMODESET) option with built-in boot parameters: append file=/cdrom/preseed/lubuntu.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash -- nomodeset the system will install with nomodeset in the boot parameters. Is this correct? (sorry for being picky about details but I am not as familiar with this as you are and there is nothing worse for a newbie to install a system and boot to a black screen... just want to confirm that what I am planning to do will work) Thanks. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/664526 Title: setting nomodeset in grub, if live session was started with nomodeset To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/664526/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
