Bug Description

When booting from Live-CD (daily build 5.4.2007) the boot screen comes up offering to start / install and other options.
Using function keys one can adjust the installation:
F3 ... select keyboard mapping brings a corrupted screen buffer (one can see lines interlaced), selection of German (1st column) is not possible
F4 ... VGA screen resolution has no effect

Happened on a HP nx8220 and a HP 510 (both notebooks).

6.10 Live-CD behaves correctly.

Correction:

on the HP 510, F2 (language settings), F4 (display selection) and F5 (accessibility settings) work, only F3 provides obscured screen results
