Hey Benny!

 BP> have you tryed booting vesa fb0 ?

Not since the Paleolithic.  Besides that requires a 4:3 monitor which I currently lack.

 BP> if that works its just missing firmware or unsupported uhd in
 BP> kernel

So far I am up to a bootable 5.13.1 kernel and it still doesn't even try to display penguins.  :-/

 BP> loadlin.exe gentoo with msdos-splash
 BP> i remember this dos program, mostly used on floppy disks to boot
 BP> linux, shameless

There was also a win95 version of it (desktop icon) that when you double clicked on it, it would shut down win95 and fire up a linux partition without a reboot.

Shameless for sure.

Life is good,
Maurice
