things are even worse.
If I boot from the iso, and select option '2' for the livecd option
and
taking the defaults of ps2 mouse, 640x480x8 resolution and xga
monitor, I
get the following error messages:
aux/vga: vgactlw: <linear 0x3e80000 0x0>: unknown vmware id 0740
rio: can't open display: initdisplay /dev/draw/new: no frame buffer
init: rc exit status: rio 9: display open
And then the boot sequence starts /bin/rc, and I get a 'term%'
prompt.
Is this also related to bit rotted vmware drivers?
try "vesa" for monitor and play with different resolutions
"aux/vga -m vesa -p" should give you some info.
Using "vesa" for monitor along with all of the resolutions I tried
actually
hangs (i.e. I don't even get a text-mode term% prompt), as does "aux/
vga -m vesa -p"
if I type it at the text mode prompt.
Cheers,
Gary
