if your problem is simply that X flat out doesn't work with the nouveau
driver at present on your card, that'd certainly explain why
installation doesn't work, because installation uses X just the same way
as a regular running system does, so it'll be trying to use nouveau. if
you use the kernel parameter 'xdriver=vesa' when running the installer,
does that workaround the problem?
