Yea, I did a bunch of refactoring. I'm surprised that this produced a
change at all. Would be nice to
know which one of these caused the problems.

That's likely my fault, it should be a link to a plain 'efi' I'll prep a
fix.

&gt;&gt; <br>
&gt;&gt; So I expect to use that.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Turns out that I had the time.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; Use of the ./boot/loader.efi from a358db560370 substituted<br>
&gt; into the failing main snapshot based microsd card worked<br>
&gt; fine for both contexts:<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; A) Just serial console.<br>

&gt; B) Serial console and HDMI console at the same time.<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; I also tried the oldest artifact build with the loader change<br>
