Do you have the ability to capture the boot messages (either with a serial console, or with a digital camera)? If so, ccan you please boot with the "bootverbose" option from the menu, and once you're in the installer press scroll lock, page up, and take a picture of the screen? Then press page up again and take another picture, untly you've got the last 10 or so screens of text? Then please upload these somewhere and share a link to them? Thanks!
