Boot hangs with Debian Jessie on Toshiba Satellite C55-A

Hello all, I have a brand new Toshiba Satellite C55-A-1ND. I have installed it so that it dual-boots Win8 and Debian (this was an adventure in itself). The problem is that I cannot get Jessie to boot. It just seems to hang after: "Loading initial ramdisk". Here are the things I tried so far:
