Hi Laszlo, bonsoir Michelle
We are one step ahead: Setting COONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONFIG=n resulted in a bootable kernel. During bootup, my console is still dark and I can't see any messages. But X starts up and I can log in. If I switch then to any of my six consoles, fancy coloured patterns appear on the display.
I did a "grep -i conso /var/log/dmesg /var/log/kern.log /var/log/messages /var/log/syslog" The result is negativ: not one match.
So it looks like a console problem and we can forget the SATA thing at the moment.
Next question would be: How to achieve a visible and usable console?
(The question after then will be: How to get my Broadcom network adapter running? It's currently running with the tg3 module. One of those that have been dropped out of the kernel.)
Thanks and regards
