19:55:20silasfoxHi, I'm trying to run Mezzano on an old laptop on the bare metal.I've dd-ed
19:55:59silasfoxthe image.raw after (mezzano.supervisor:snapshot) to the laptop's hard drive,
19:57:27silasfoxbut all I get is a black screen with a red line, saying "mezzano: starting system. Entry point is ff8cde49 sp is 00c05c39 info is 00100000"
19:58:53silasfoxI don't guess that that's very helpful, but the framebuffer console doesn't tell me anything I would understand either, and I don't know how to siphon it off to have a closer look at it.
19:59:16fitzsimthe laptop doesn't happen to have a serial port, does it?
20:02:18fitzsimsilasfox: the easiest thing is probably to put "video-console" on the kboot command line
20:03:23fitzsimsilasfox: they're labelled "... framebuffer console ..." in the kboot UI
20:07:48silasfoxfitzsim: No, it doesn't have a serial port.
20:08:21fitzsimok, you disconnected... did you see my follow up messages about framebuffer console?
20:09:02silasfoxYes, I've booted it with the framebuffer console.
20:16:06silasfoxMy internet keeps failing, I think I'll come back to this when my connection's fixed and it's not in the middle of the night... Bye, thanks for your advice, fitzsim .
