FC4 hangs during install on an IBM300GL

Hi,

The error happened while the installer was entering graphic mode (right after the CD test phase).

Here is the screenshot :

It looks like it had some sort of problem during the video chip setup (in videocard.py).

Machine summary :
Type : IBM300GL
Year : 1999
Processor : P2 / 333
RAM : 128Mo
Graphic controller : S3Trio3D OnBoard - 86C366 chip with 2Mo RAM
HDD : Maxtor 740 40Go

The machine is fully functional (worked well with Win98), the FC4 CDs were successfully tested.

Sure the obvious way out would be to install in text mode, but making it work with this old but popular
machine would be much better.

Is that a known bug ?

Thanks in advance.
