When starting expert26, it just freezes after the screen is cleared the first time, leaving the cursor blinking at the lower left corner. This is reproducible. I tried BOOT_DEBUG=255, but I cannot read the output as it scrolls too fast, I do not have a serial console available, and flow control is apparently not (yet) operable. The boot works fine if I specify either of expert26 debian-installer/probe/usb=false linux26 debian-installer/probe/usb=false at the boot prompt (added to the Wiki). The R40e also suffers from the "missing keyboard" bug (see Wiki), for which only the Caps Lock workaround seems to work -- very sporadically.
