Kernel options

Install Cheatcodes: "linux noapic ( skips part of hardware detection )

linux pci=noapic ( skips parts of the hardware detection on PCI cards )

linux ide=nodma ( disable DMA on all IDE drives )

linux mem=1536M ( if the memory has more then 1G memory )

linux vga=0 ( sets the vga to default )

linux acpi=off ( skips parts of the hardware detection on PCI cards )

Here are a few more options you can add after the kernel version:
noagp ( skips hardware detetion on agp slot )
noaudio ( skips parts of the hardware detection )
noddc ( skips parts of the hardware detection )
noapic ( skips parts of the hardware detection )
nopcmcia ( skips parts of the hardware detection )
noscsi ( skips parts of the hardware detection )
nousb ( skips parts of the hardware detection )
nofirewire ( skips parts of the hardware detection )
noapm ( disable Advanced Power Management )

The next ones are used without typing the kernel version first and only have effect on the installer itself:

vgahi ( high resolution graphical install )
vgalo ( low resolution graphical install )
vga16 ( 640 x 480 in 16 colors install )
text ( text install instead of graphical )"
