OK, I tried with video=atafb:sthigh and I also boot it from an empty
state (i.e. booting Falcon with Control key pressed), and it managed to
start this time. I did not remember it was so loooong to boot it.
One thing I notice: the clock time jumps somewhere from
[0] PID hash table entries...
to
[42949372.97] Console: colour dummy device 80x25
in kernel log
I also remember now that all PCI stuff was disabled for m68k arch in kernel.
Would it be hard to get it back?
