Hi Andrea, I have switched the harddisks again and I am back at my "old" (but working) system. I have review the logs the new system has left behind in /var/log...and according to the "dmesg" file it shows the but untill all partitions get mounted. rc.log stops here: * Executing: /lib/rc/sh/openrc-run.sh /lib/rc/sh/openrc-run.sh /etc/init.d/local start * Starting local ... [ ok ] rc default logging stopped at Tue Apr 7 19:29:36 2020 which is identical to what rc.log shows at my old system. So nice to fine...or... I have tried to login blindly but that does not work... It seems, that the framebuffer thingie is the culprit here...I have reconfigured the kernel according to what you have suggested...but nothing changed... I have no further ideas... Cheers! Meino
