Then this issue is outside my area of expertise, perhaps someone from the debian-boot team has a suggestion. With kind regards, Roland Clobus PS: Keep [email protected] in the replies, otherwise the mailing list cannot see the responses.

I assume the passage meant that the monitor was receiving an invalid signal, not no signal at all, but I thought it was worth trying. The installer can blank the screen after a while (about 10 minutes, IIRC). Did you press some keys (e.g. the space bar) on the keyboard to turn the screen on again? With kind regards, Roland Clobus
