Can't install Edubuntu on a new PC

[Mariana Curado Malta]

You are right. I shoud have installed the Workstation.

After your email I tried to install the workstation but I have the
same problem, afetr installing the base system I have the black screen
and can't see anything of what is happening.

I do enter and everytime I do the red light flashes. Meaning that the
keyboard is not blocked. But can't access a console or terminal on F2
or F3 or F1.

I do have an Intel integrated Exterme Graphics card on my motherboard.
I supose the problem is here.

What else can I do?
