When you install you should pick nothing at all unless you are sure that it will work. Choosing no graphics drivers will still give you default 1024x768 graphics and will allow you to get into OSX (provided there are no other issues)
You can use the boot-flag -v on startup which will put you in Verbose Mode. It will then display test during the boot process and you can reply back with where it hangs.
To use these boot-flags just startup, wait for the Darwin bootloader to appear with a countdown and press F8. Enter your boot-flags and press enter.
[EDIT] As far as the two DVI ports are concerned, if you can get the card supported they should both work fine. Ill check to see.
