I'm using 2.6.15-gentoo-r1.

I am sure that something is printing out before the screen goes blank, but
the only key combo I can use to get out of the blank screen is ctrl-alt-del,
which switches me to runlevel 6 and reboots the system.

I'll try starting mol and redirecting the output to a file, maybe it'll
capture something useful.

Thanks!

If the OS9 install is on the same partition as OSX, that won't work.
Barring that, you've probably neglected to configure something in
/etc/mol.  What do the debugging messages say when you run startmol?  If
you're doing it from a console, it should print some info.  When it
switches to the blinking cursor, it's switched to another console, but
MOL hasn't started.  You should be able to switch back with the normal
console switch keys.

Just for when you get that fixed, you'll also need to make sure that the
sheep module is built (USE="sheep") when using OS9, it won't run
otherwise.  Which kernel are you using?
