Problem TL;DR: Black screen of death then motion would shut off. Ctrl + alt + F2 didn't help.
Solution:
Here’s what those kernel parameters do:
nomodeset:
• Disables Kernel Mode Setting (KMS)
• Prevents the Linux kernel from loading modern graphics drivers
• Forces the system to use basic, generic display drivers
• Essential when your graphics hardware isn’t properly supported yet
• Lets you get a working display to complete installation
acpi=off:
• Disables Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
• ACPI handles power management, hardware detection, and device configuration
• Sometimes newer motherboards (like your X870) have ACPI implementations that confuse Linux
• Disabling it forces Linux to use simpler hardware detection methods
• Helps with boot hangs and hardware initialization issues
Why you need both:
• nomodeset solves the graphics/display problem
• acpi=off solves motherboard compatibility issues with the very new X870 chipset
After installation:
• You can remove these parameters once you install proper drivers
• They’re just temporary fixes to get the installer working
• Your final system won’t need them (especially once you reinstall the RTX 3060 with proper NVIDIA drivers)
