Re: Guix installation disk - screen unreadable /solved

Hallo Florian, Thanks.

Adding i915 to modprobe.blacklist (amdgpu and radeon were already there) 
solved the problem.

Also I found that trying ctrl-alt-F3 and than ctrl-alt-F1 resulted in a 
readable menu. But without the modprobe.blacklist the other TTYs 
remained unreadable.
