I *strongly* recommend switching to SRM, especially if this is a clean
install. If it doesn't detect your SCSI device or your graphics card
you will have to switch back to ARC, but chance are good that you can
stay with SRM which is much more flexible.

Check the archives how to change consoles. Then the install should be
pretty painless.
