Dear team,

This problem should be added to the list of known problems in the Stretch 
Alpha 5 release of the DebianInstaller 
[https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/errata.en.html]

Debian-Installer Stretch Alpha 5 
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/stretch_di_alpha5/amd64/iso-cd/debian-stretch-DI-alpha5-amd64-netinst.iso
 
won't install on Thinkpad X1 Carbon (4th Gen) (Type 20FB, 20FC). The console 
won't show anything after the initial welcome screen when the install 
actually start.

The solution is to start the installer with the following option:
boot: install intel_pstate=no_hwp

cf.

This happens with Debian-Installer Stretch Alpha 5, but not with the actual 
weekly and daily installer images.

I'll give full installation reports when I managed to finalize a Debian 
installation on this
