Hi everyone.

I am a beginner in Arch.
I am going to install Arch (latest dual) on my PC.
My PC is small box with 1 DVI Display Port.
I reached Boot Screen and selected [Boot Arch Linux (i686)]
After display some booting log (with many OKs).
I got a black screen. (no signal to Monitor)
I thinks installation is running (I still can turn on/off NumLock LED).

My box is connected to Wide Screen via a DIV - HDMI Adapter.
Please give me some suggestion for this problem.

Sorry for my poor English.

Thanks and best regards.

Are you using Intel Video?

Thanks for suggestion.
I solved my problem.
In fact, I have just had Debian on my box. It worked properly.
In following link:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … s_and_EDID

So I thought that Kernel Parameter should be set to work with my DVI port.
And I got some parameter value from Debian by checking Hardware Information.

My arch installation worked well by adding video=DVI-D-1:1024x768@60 to kernel boot entry.

Again, thanks so much.
