The camera recorded a \ with an underscore under it. For the time until the blank screen, it did not seem to be changing. > I'm going to see if I can get a picture/video of the first > material to show up. The first image after the bank screen as captured by the camera was the "Welcome to FreeBSD" display with selections 1. to 5. and options 6. and 7. where it also said: Autoboot in 0 sections, hit [Enter] to boot or any other key [edge of = picture] Loading kernel... /boot/kernel/kernel text=3D *** I OMIT DETAILS ON THIS LINE *** *** I OMIT DETAILS ON THIS LINE *** Loading configured modules... /boot/entropy size=3D0x1000 /etc/hostid size=3D0x25 / That last may just be timing of the imaging. (I used fast repeat instead of video.) =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
