downloaded and burned 12.1 iso, 64bit target machine: new Dell XPS X8300 6007BK i72600 Radeon HD 6450 2x500GB disks in hardware raid 1) Initial bits of the install come up ok (get the initial menu) 2) Select "Installation" 3) screen goes to dark flat green, otherwise blank 4) wait a few seconds, hit ESC, screen goes blank white 5) and that's it. Nothing else happens or helps Tried "Check Installation", which had the very odd result of coming up ok, but with the screen wrapped 50% to the right (i.e. the left half of the screen was on the right, and the right half was on the left of the monitor). It did a plain progress meter, eventually deciding that things were OK, then went into the install screens. They "worked" although were still wrapped around. (nice touch that it did detect the hardware raid and seemed happy with it). I stopped at this point, made nervous by the wrapping, etc.. Further tries only resulted in the really bad sequence mentioned first in this email, irrespective of choosing "Installation" or "Check Installation". Suggestions? Thanks.
