Hi,
I'm booting from an Arch USB installation media 2012.09.07 for installing on a new machine.
It's an Atom motherboard with an Intel PowerVR SGX545 graphics card.
I've already tried with different kernel options like:
nomodeset
and
video=LVDS-1:d
as I've found in other threads. None lead to any result.
Any hint on how to solve it?
Thanks!

Have you tried the following on the boot line in grub:
acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor
I had a problem installing on my new laptop a few weeks ago, and this fixed the problem you are having. YMMV.

I've tried with both VGA-1 and DVI-I-1 outputs and no result Will try to mix some options and see...
Just booted up now with an Ubuntu 12.04LTS live USB with no problems, but it's not the same kernel (3.2.0).

Use the lts kernel. It's the simplest workaround if the current kernel has modesetting issues.

And how can I do an installation with that kernel? Any link I can read from?
Thanks!

I've downloaded Archboot and will try to install from that media.

You really don't need to reinstall. That is really not a "solution". Just install linux-lts and whatever other lts packages you may need. For instance I have a realtek 8111/8168 ethernet card, and I need r8168. But w/ linux-lts I also need r8168-lts because it is then compiled against the linux-lts kernel.

I'm not reinstalling, it's a fresh install on a virgin machine
