i would diagnose this as most likely an issue with vga.  your
kernel is clearly running, and receiving interrupts.   if you
could try interrupting the boot loader by hitting the space
bar a few times just after selecting the default boot option.
then enter

user=none
boot

this should disable video, and we can see if that is indeed the issue.
it could be as simple as your monitor and the vesa bios not coming
together on a video mode.
