Hi Oliver,

I did test with the legacy installer on Hyper-V, as you suggested, and the same issue occurs. That being, after the install completes and the system reboots, the logon screen froze (no mouse, couldn't click on username). I rebooted again and did get the mouse to be active on the logon screen and the system froze when changing to the home page (draws background and background for dash and stops there with no mouse or keyboard). I used the 'nomodeset' and was able to use the system. IMHO, with this testing it appears that the installer is functioning properly, and that the issue is somewhere in the startup of the user session.

Per your suggestion, I have collected the 3 directories into a tar file and attached them to the bug (though the bug system).

Thanks,
...Kern
