Re: Monitor flashes/flickers during install



I had the same issue installing both ‘surge’ and ‘woody’ on a Compaq:

 

Deskpro EN

256 meg RAM

onboard VGA

onboard Ethernet

Intel 766mhz PIII chip

 

Problem:

During install the screen would flicker on and off in half second intervals.

 

Resolution:

Run install with the framebuffer parameter disabled.

 

i.e.  at the boot prompt type “linux debian-installer/framebuffer:false”
