MBA Mid 2011: Black screen booting installation media

Hello,

I've been trying to install Arch Linux on my Mid 2011 Macbook Air (Intel HD Graphics 3000). However, all I get when I select the boot entry is a black screen and the USB drive activity led stops flashing after a few seconds. I've looked through various posts, telling me to add nomodeset / i915.modeset=0 to the boot flags, that did not help however.
The image on the USB drive is from April 1st, 2015. It boots fine on my Desktop PC (not a Mac however).

Your help is much appreciated.

PS: I wasnt sure where to post this (Laptop Issues or here), so if it is the wrong section please move the thread.
