Installing LL 3.2

[bitsnpcs]

Hello,
I am trying to install LL3.2 on a computer, the live dvd spins up and I see the menu, as it moves on from this, the screen goes black and the monitor power light turns off, as if the monitor cable has been removed.
I know the cable works as its usually used on another computer, and I know the cable connection and graphics work as I edited the bios and it is graphical interface, with various konky type aspects running.
I hear the Linux Lite start up music just cannot see on the screen, so cannot progress any further at this stage.
The bios is Asus version 2.17.1246, the motherboard is Asus H110M-R.  The graphics are Intel integrated 510HD.

The bios settings I altered were -
1/ change to boot from dvd. 
2/ chose other OS, instead of windows uefi default. (the computer does not have windows installed, its for Linux)

Post the make and model of the computer.

Hello torreydale,
it is a Zoostorm Origin

The answer seems to be due to your Skylake CPU.  Online and in this forum, people mention using the "nomodeset" setting in GRUB to overcome that.  I'm not sure how to do that in LL 3.2, but here's how it's being approached in Ubuntu.

Hello,
there doesn't seem to be any option for nomodeset, I have the eufi disabled, fast boot disabled, (tried with enabled), have stack disabled, have enabled legacy mode and csm, it's still the same.

Like the links showed, there isn't a nomodeset setting, but an edit you have to make in GRUB, if you can get to it using the Live ISO.  As you boot to your Live DVD, you might need to hold the right shift key to get to the Advanced options.  Then you hit the e key to edit the GRUB file of the kernel. 

Scroll down to the line marked "linux", and replace the words "quiet splash" with nomodeset.  One link also mentions adding nolapic.

It didn't go to advanced mode when holding the right shift key.
It boots to the LL menu then same as previously monitor powers off/ black screen.

When you get to the LL menu, what happens if you "Press [Tab] to edit options"?

Hello,

I haven't used the tab on the LL menu, I leave it to count down on the default first option, like I usually do before installing LL.

At the moment I decided to download the Ubuntu 16.04.1 its says AMD64, as I see reviews on the pc say it loads without any issues.
Which I can confirm it does,  it loads to the desktop no issues at all.

Asks if I want to try or install Ubuntu, I selected try and desktop has loaded, I then used firefox and came to the forum. I am writing this using the Ubuntu Live dvd, on the new pc.
It looks nice enough (nicer than windows), but it is not Linux Lite  :'( which we all know is the nicest

Is this any help as to what may be the problem ?

Or is there anything I can do from this loaded Ubuntu live that would help the Linux Lite dvd to load ?

If not is it likely Ubuntu will install, and is it possible to then convert that Ubuntu install somehow to LL ?

Edit: before trying Ubuntu, I also tried to see if I could the LL 32bit to load as a live dvd, in case the 64bit was on a faulty burn or dvd media, as I had used the 32bit to install to the 3ghz computer recently, the 32bit stops at the same time inthe same way as the 64bit.

I'm pretty sure this is the way to set nomodeset..

From the Grub Screen
Press "e" for command prompt
- Arrow down to the linux line (mine was 2nd from bottom)
- Then arrow right to the quiet splash - backspace to remove and add nomodeset
F10 or ctrl x to save...

Looks like a common issue with the Baytrails too, although maybe the video card(nvida??)...

Oh if this is a 64-bit UEFI system, Jerry does have a test EUFI installer if you want to give it a go.. here
