After booting up and selecting the huge.s kernel, the characters on the screen are all distorted and I cannot see anything. I "blindly" type "poweroff" or "reboot" to abort the installation. In order to create the installation media I use the file and instructions that are here: http://slackware.uk/slackware/slackw...xe-installers/ It is also worth to mention that this issue doesn't happen using the Slackware64 14.2 version (it boots up correctly, on the correct resolution and the distortion doesn't happen), which is here: http://slackware.uk/slackware/slackw...xe-installers/
