Hey guys. I'm having an issue with installing Proxmox and I was hoping you guys could help.

I have the newest VE ISO. I'm running on 2x E5430's with 8GB of ram.

I get to the screen where I am prompted to hit return to begin the install. The problem is that I get a black screen as soon as I start this and nothing happens (I've let it run for about an hour on multiple occasions - nothing).

I've run the following to no avail:

debug vga=normal acpi=off

It will return one line and then hang at a blinking cursor. The line that shows up is "probing edd" or something. Typing "edd=off" after the debug line only brings me to a blank screen with a flashing cursor.

What could be going on?
