Good morning,
Could you try this image:
http://84.50.115.54/OI-hipster-gui-20231027.usb
It gets past the previous hurdle. Thank you for whatever tweak this
involved.
Now the "however". It fails to open a graphical login screen. Does
this mean it is without graphics at all? Would a text install and
then "pkg install mate_install" make any difference?
This is not my machine and if this never works it is not a tragedy but
solving this now could help others in future.
My apologies for using screen pictures. "tip hardwire" is my preference.
James.

Hello!
In my experience, in most of the cases that lightdm is not working its
because the X is not starting. Maybe the VESA doesn't work. Is there an
/var/log/Xorg.0.log ?
You could try a text-install and look at the X problem then again on the
installed basic system..
OI lacks drivers for the latest Intel chipsets, but VESA should work.
NVIDIA is best, if there is a PCI socket you could insert an old NVIDIA
card (NVS 310 or NVS 295 are small passive ones for a few bucks)

Regards,
Stephan
