I'm trying to install Debian buster on to the Huawei Kunpeng arm64 server, found that the installation graphic output not show up via the server BMC virtual console.
Huawei Kunpeng arm64 server using a hibmc chip on the mainboard, the lspci output of the VGA device is:
~$ lspci -nn | grep VGA
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. Hi1710 [iBMC Intelligent Management system chip w/VGA support] [19e5:1711] (rev 01)
Currently the kernel VGA driver module (hibmc_drm.ko) was not included in the netboot initrd (
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/installer-arm64/20190702+deb10u1/images/netboot/netboot.tar.gz) .
I have verified the BMC virtual console graphic output works well after adding the hibmc_drm.ko into the netboot initrd, could you please help to built and include this driver module in the installer?
Thanks
