Comments/Problems:
didn't detect the PCI card properly, therefore went to the onboard video
(luckily i had a small monitor connected at the time). kernel panic on
boot; partial error output:
kernel panic killing interrupt handler
in interrupt handler - not syncing

rather disappointing not actually seeing the installer because of the
kernel panic. :|
