Greetings!
I am trying to get the console using l4env and fiasco on an old x86 desktop. Is it like the bash shell? Images have been compiled from CVS sources. All images are booted from the grub present in the demo floppy.
The grub entry is as follows:
kernel (fd0)/l4/v2/rmgr -sigma0 modaddr 0x01500000 kernel (fd0)/l4/v2/main -noserial -nowait -nokdb kernel (fd0)/l4/v2/sigma0 kernel (fd0)/l4/v2/names kernel (fd0)/l4/v2/log kernel (fd0)/l4/v2/dm_phys kernel (fd0)/l4/v2/con
The output that I get while booting is as follows:
" con | OSKit support: using 128 KB at 0x00002000 as heap con | Characters size is 8x14, font has 256 characters con | vc_init_gr (): con | [8.2] l4con/server/src/vc.c: 315: vc_init_gr(): con | Did not find VBE info block in multiboot info con | Perhaps you have to upgrade GRUB, RMGR or oskit10_support con | GRUB has to set the video mode with the vbeset command con | con | Alternatively, try passing the --vbemode=<mode> switch con |
----PANIC, 'g' for exit "
By console, does it correspond to serial port output or the VGA display? The desktop is a Sony Trinitron multiscan 15sx display.
Any suggestions/ideas would be useful,
Thanks,
SK
