I have finally had some time to install it. The install went smoothly except the "i915.modeset=0" option that needs to be entered at the kernel options in GRUB for things to move forward. unfortunately, it works veeeeryy veeeryyy slowly. It looks like a launcher issue mostly. Does anyone have any clue about this?
