 I did already try that (you can see the full output I got in the previous mail).
 It succeeded to boot just once and showed the installation screen but
 then I wanted to see if it was just random luck and I rebooted the
 machine, tried again the same command, then it went on hanging during
 the boot process. Tried multiple times and it still hangs.
 I guess it was just random luck to make it boot once.
 
 I do have a question, let's say I succeed to boot it and make it to
 the installation screen, do I proceed with the installation as normal?
 I mean, what are the implications of installing with the nouveau
 driver disabled?
