quik booting sometimes takes some trouble shooting, simply getting a
black screen once does not mean its never going to work, you need to
either setup OF's output and input-device variables to get OF to
display to the console, or hook up a serial terminal to see whats
going on.  i cannot help diagnose a problem with unhelpful reports
like `i get a black screen'   that is no more helpful then `it
crashes'.  

your problem could be as simple as a misconfigured /etc/quik.conf.
