Bug#399173: Etch installation on HPC nx6325

[Verand]

 Using installgui:
 Failed step: choose and install software, right after xorg configuration.
 Failed GRUB installation. No /boot/grub created.
 GUI mode hangs after switching consoles.

Does this result in a screen flash after which you're sent back to the 
graphical installer?
  


There was no screen flash.

I switched from GUI to text console, to see, what could be problem to 
GRUB and came back to GUI. Installer has stopped to response from this 
moment. No keyboard inputs nor mouse events were possible.


Regards

Arthur

ah, so you were actually able to go to, let's say, VT2, type some 
commands and then switching back to VT5 (graphical interface's VT), right?
  

Exactly.
One more question: when you said you colud complete installation with 
expert vga=791 was that a textual or a graphical instalation?
  

It was textual one.

Arthur
