I can't install Debian 8. Resource used: USB stick with DVD1 part of iso image of Debian 8.4 downloaded today.Problem: no matter which combination I tried, the Debian always hangs at boot-up stage. The only message on screen was: "Loading, please wait" grub.cfg file does contain correct root=UUID, not simple root=/dev/sda/

More info about error message (I let installation automatically set partition with LVM): "Loading, please wait... /dev/mapper/debian--vg-root: clean, 150424/14542212 files, 12222345/454354354 blocks _ " and the blinking underscore just stay there for ever. it is frustrating, because this error happens again and again. I don't know how to fix.

more details about the error: I jumped into Grub, add 'quiet=no' to make it more verbose. Then new info: I can see a list of OK message, the last two being [OK] Started Load/Save Random Seed [OK] Started Various fixups to make systemd work better on Debian (blinking cursor...)

I tried installing/ running Debian Jessie amd64 with the Xfce graphical
desktop on a few Sandy Bridge and older computers, but found it wasn't
as stable as I desired. Therefore, I am still installing and running
Debian Wheezy (now at version 7.10):
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/7.10.0/
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/7.10.0/amd64/
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/7.10.0/amd64/iso-cd/
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/7.10.0/amd64/iso-cd/debian-7.10.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/archive/7.10.0/amd64/iso-cd/MD5SUMS
This works well on almost all of my machines (my laptop with 945GM
chipset has issues with EDID and external monitors). I would expect
Wheezy also works well on Ivy Bridge. I am unsure about Haswell. I
would not expect everything (notably X Windows) to work on Skylake. If
after installation you find that you have hardware that is newer than
what is supported, you can look for updated drivers on Debian Backports:
