Bug Description

Booting the knot2 desktop CD failed after the "configuratin X" boot message. The screen went black except for a flashing underscore character in the upper left of the screen and stayed that way for 3 minutes.

Using the Ctl-Alt-Backspace key combination allowed the boot to continue and in fact X came up and I was able to finish the install.

The laptop I was installing on is a Dell Latitude D800 with an nvidia card that dmidecode describes as a Gforce FX go5200.
