Hi,

There's a small glitch in the iso:
it seems that on ati radeon 345m igp cards the text in the menus of the iso
is not readable. The menus themselves work, there's just no text.
A quick workaround is to boot the iso with "install vga=791"

At least, someone found a solution :-) You can answer to all people asking about this problem on the forums (but not reporting it through bugzilla !).

However, I'd like to know how this is possible. The ISO just uses the basic text mode provided by the kernel console, nothing really fancy. What could be wrong with that? What is this "vga=791" mode?
