Can't install FC4 on a ABS Mayhem F-15 A40 (Turion 64 MT-32) laptop

[Vladimir G. Ivanovic]

I don't think the installer ever gets that far with the FC4-x86_64
version. I don't ever see any indication that a kernel has started to
run. Even with CentOS, which does get further, nothing on the screen
before it goes blank indicates that a kernel has started.

BTW, I had already tried "linux text". No difference. :-(
