Bug#538381: the same issue?

[Yaroslav Halchenko]

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
