Would that even work with a 6.3 userland, or would I need to build world as well? I can also re-enable debug output in the isp driver and report what is going on there. Unfortunately last time I tried this the two results were not that useful: (1) capturing it from the screen (or Dell RAC output) you only get the last 20-odd lines; or (2) redirecting to a serial console slightly changes the behaviour (it still never boots but remains forever in some kind of retry loop), perhaps because the kernel execution is throttled to the 9600 baud output speed. Could try 115kbaud, but that is still pretty slow, relative to no serial. Graham
