Real disappointed by the kernel 2.4.26 that allocates the videoram randomly and often completely out of 24-bit VIDEL range I have given last try with the 2.2.x kernel. And what a surprise - at the moment where kernel 2.4.x turned font colors to red and got stuck the 2.2.x cleared the screen and offered language selection! Seems like the Sarge should better offer also 2.2.x kernel for some m68k archs :) Petr
