Just got the new toy, downloaded b19 recently (over a dialup, yet!), burned the CDs, partitioned (worth paying for P.M. not to have to reload Windows!), and installed. Install went smooth, except I'd asked for stuff on the Companion CD and then not had burned one, so I had to tell it to skip that at the end of the installation.
On reboot, all I had was a black screen; I think the OS was up (occasional disk activity and such), but I couldn't see what I was doing, so it didn't help much. This laptop doesn't have "legacy" ports (serial and parallel) onboard, and I don't have the docking station, so a serial console setup (if that's even possible on x86) isn't an option. What are the specific steps needed to get up with at least as good a display as appeared during install? I've already seen about downloading the broadcom network driver.
