RE: Debian 31r0a install

["Ted Letofsky" <ted@wenzeldata.com>]

Good afternoon,

Thanks for replying SO quickly.


Yes, I just checked that now.
There's a VERY long list of things in "show", but console is set to graphics
and console_mode is set to boot.

AFAIK, I am also using the most current firmware (I have a floppy drive for
TWO of the thre Multias)
http://ftp.dreamtime.org/pub/multia/firmware/

Thanks,

Ted

Is the "console" SRM variable set correctly? It needs to be set to
"graphics" unless you use a serial console.
