@Sebastian:
Please post the full amiboot command line you are using. I haven't
watched the video yet, but did you remember to use the initrd?

I prefer using a serial cable hooked up to my PC. Works like a charm
with debug=ser and console=ttyS0,9600n8.
Here's my command line for amiboot:
amiboot-5.6 -k vmlinux-3.16.0-4-m68k -r initrd.img-3.16.0-4-m68k
root=/dev/hda3 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8 modprobe.blacklist=amiflop
Blacklisting amiflop is necessary as otherwise btrfs will try to access
the floppy drive which won't cease until you insert a floppy disk.
Apparently btrfs doesn't understand that amiflop is a floppy drive and
not a hard disk where it could expect a btrfs filesystem. I should
file a bug report upstream.
