Done and done. Still the same issue. I'm chatting on IRC with Nathan Whitehall about it, and we found a fix. In the bootloader, it is necessary to set currdev=3Dultra0:10 (in OF parlance this is ultra0:11 which leaves us up a certain creek without a certain implement) ... and then boot.=20 I'm now in my comfy little root ttyv0 ready to get things rolling. Anything more I should be aware of? :) Thanks again for all your help.
