Hello all !

I am having a hard time installing Linux Mint 17.2 (either Mate or Cinnamon) or LMDE on a Beebox N3000.
I just get a blank screen instead :((

So far, I've only be able to install Ubuntu 15.10 (at least, this shows that the hardware is fine), but I'd rather use Linux Mint.

Any help ?

François

I have tried to update the BIOS using instant flash (see http://asrock.com/support/BIOSUI.asp?cat=BIOS8) for version 1.5, but this did not solve my problem...
