Title:
  [MSI A88XM-E45][A4-5300] 'buntu 14.04.1 constant reboot without
  nomodeset

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Machine was happy with Xubuntu 13.10, but the software has been
  discontinued and I was forced to upgrade. USB stick with 14.04.1 would
  reboot continuously. USB stick with 14.04.1 server installs
  flawlessly, but then the server itself reboots continuously.

  WORKAROUND: Boot into recovery mode (hidden grub option)
  * Drop to root shell
  * Mount disk for read/write
  * edit /etc/default/grub:  find the line starting with 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=' and add the word nomodeset inside the quotes
  * run update-grub and reboot
