Hi Bernhard,
I'm so sorry for the long delay in getting back to you. Somehow I was
not notified that there was a new (your) message waiting to be read. The
good news is that adding "vmwgfx.enable_fbdev=1" to the kernel command
line definitely solves the problem! The system works as expected now.

If I disable the "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX" parameter then GRUB does not
tell Linux anything. I assume that GRUB (or is it the Linux kernel?)
switches back to 80x25 text mode and the whole boot process completes
without problems. No black screen.
Markus Hamilton.
