I am trying to boot B1000 into Debian installer using the full
install 4.0r0 CD. It is getting along fine until it does the “Console: switching
to colour STI console 160x64” After that the first 10 or so symbols of every subsequent
line of output are displayed in a garbled version on the very far right of the
screen. The graphics card as indentified by both IODC and PALO is “GRAPHICS
(2) 10/6/2/0 PCI_GRAFFITIDX1280” The boot command is “0/vmlinux64 root=dev/ram initrd=0/ramdisk
ramdisk_size=12580 console=tty0 sti=10/6/2/0 sti_font=VGA8x16 TERM=linux” The last lines that I see on the screen are: “STI GSC/PCI core graphics driver Version 0.9a” “STI PCI graphic ROM found at fffffffff7000000 (64kb),
fb at fffffffffa000000 (32mb)” “id 2d08c0a7-9a02587, conforms to spec rev. 8.0a” “graphics card name: PCI_GRAFFITIDX1280” “sticon: initializing STI text console” “Console: switching to colour STI console 160x64” And that is the last line I see. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Max |
