--- Comment #13 from Ryan Moeller <ryan at freqlabs.com> ---
I found the issue I was having with vidconsole. It was an incorrect setting in
the BIOS: [Advanced > PCIe/PCI/PnP Configuration > Onboard Video OPROM] was set
to EFI instead of legacy. With it set to legacy I can see the boot text now. It
doesn't fix the original issue though.

For sanity checking (legacy booting images from CI),

r353390.img (latest HEAD) - text visible

Consoles: internal video/keyboard
BIOS drive C: is disk0
BIOS drive D: is disk1ersion is 1.02 (looks like we're missing a screen clear)
BIOS drive E: is disk2
...
BIOS drive M: is disk10
BIOS drive N: is disk11
|

The spinner twiddled for a while then the system hung here. No loader menu.

r353385.img (latest stable/12) - text visible but stalls before menu (same as
above, but without the glitch on the drive D: line)


r340154.img (earliest stable/12) - works correctly
r348988.img - works correctly
r351206.img - works correctly
r352298.img - stalls before loader menu

Now this feels like some progress. I'll narrow it down between r351206 and
r352298 next.
