The installation process went without noticable problems; this is true to the setup phase immediately after the installtion. However: after pressing "Finish" in the Setup Agent the screen blanked on me - Ctrl-Alt-F1, Ctrl-Alt-F2, Ctrl-Alt-backspace, Ctrl-Alt-Del didn't help. Nada.
And I can't shutdown it, not even with the power button.
Before I pull the plug from the power outlet: __ is there anything else I may try? __ I really hate the thought of it: brute-force shutting down a brand new machine immediately after installation is finished.
And, yes, how would you recommend to reboot? Any specific parameters to deliver to the kernel recommended?
Thanks. *sigh*
