    After black screen on install, still not able to finish installation

    .

    I tried installing Kubuntu 7.10 desktop x86-64 (AMD64) and I ran into the black screen issue.

    I searched for that and came across someone's solution for that; the changing of the default driver from 'nv' to 'vesa' ...
    That worked a treat, but now I still can't install Gutsy Gibbon.

    I see a lot of files loaded and some things being started, but in the end it stops after or during this:
    "*Running local bootscripts (/etc/rc.local)"


    After that, no more progress and no more HDD or CDROM data traffic Huh


    Anyone having any ideas to what can cause this ?


    The HW setup is as follows; a Gigabyte P35-DS3 with a C2D E6550 on it @ stock speed and 2x 1GB OCZ Gold memory (dual channel kit).
    One HDD (tried SATA and IDE, no difference) and one IDE CDROM drive.
    A Zalman CNPS-7000Cu with special Zalman mounting kit (for 775 socket).
