"at start after installation"
Please elaborate, make the statement more explicite. Like:
Installation went fine. The first start after install failed.
All later starts also.

Just do that test and please report back.

It is less strange to those who understand that computers
are far far more complexer as hammers.

What I would do:
- Do another installation attempt
- While installer runs, in a shell `uname -a`, to see which kernel
version is running
- Continue install
- Pay extra atttention when installer selects a kernel, play with that
selection
- Finish install
- Restart
- Find out which kernel version is running
- See how well it does
- Repeat the above steps
The reason for the retries to get to another kernel
is the knowledge that the installer itself uses a generic kernel
and installs and a more optimized kernel. (Too optimized also
happens :-)
