I found the thread of the same subject name and tried following the steps while trying to install openSUSE. Do you have a link to that thread? https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Nomodeset:_Work_Around_Graphic_Upgrade_&_Installation_Obstacles
Did some googling and found that OP's nvidia card is supported by the G05 driver in the nvidia repository and, according to the nouveau site, this driver also supports the card. His Intel Skylake cpu has integrated graphics and is supported by the kernel i915 driver. IMO OP should first try to boot the install using a low resolution (800x600) or failing that, try text mode. This is available by toggling the F3 (video mode) key. After installation, add the nvidia repository and install the GL05 drivers, which should be highlighted. If this does not work . . . The problem may be what is described in this bug report regarding some nvidia cards and the "simpledrm" function added to the kernel. https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1195885 A fix has been added to the driver in the repository, but that is not available during installation. The suggested workaround was to add the following to the boot command: initcall_blacklist=simpledrm_platform_driver_init OP needs to use "E" to enter edit mode and append the above text (preceded by a space) at the end of the "linux . . . " line. That will hopefully enable booting and after installation the GL05 driver can be installed from the repository. At that point OP needs to remove the added line from grub aobe with YaST Boot Loader module. HTH --dg 15.4/Plasma
