Black Screen (no video)

I worked around the problem as follows:
  • At install screen press F6 and select nomodeset and install Ubuntu as usual.
  • On first boot after install, press e on getting the GRUB bootloader.
  • Using arrow keys navigate to and delete quiet and splash and type the word nomodeset in their place
  • Press Ctrl and X to boot
  • You should now be able to login to your Ubuntu as usual
