Post your output log please. If your getting a message that the kernel is uncompressing, but you don't have any output beyond that then most likely your console is not setup correctly. If you've got a debugger, look at memory at the __log_buf location to see if there are any boot logs there. Cheers, g. -- Grant Likely, B.Sc., P.Eng.
