Deleting quiet splash
from boot cmdline
and adding nomodeset
instead lets me start the system in a way so that i can install nvidias proprietary drivers.
I can press Ctrl Alt F2
then type the following after a cmd login:
sudo service lightdm stop;
sudo rmmod nouveau;
Now i am able to install the propietary nvidia drivers on livecd using nvidias installer.
Adding a nomodeset boot option with a nouveau blacklist would be great.
There seems to be a couple of ways to blacklist a kernel module by adding a parameter at the end of the linux
command line:
nouveau.blacklist=yes
or
modprobe.blacklist=nouveau
