It never tries to boot. Grub just sits there withe phrase (did not copy |
41 |
it down) where it says what version it will boot on the screen |
42 |
and it does nothing (locked up?) I have to <cntl><alt><del> or push |
43 |
a manual reset. It never tries to load the kernel. Does not matter if |
44 |
I try a 3.13.7 or 3.14.x, I've rebuilt them quite a few times and did |
45 |
all the grub2 steps, but none of the newer kernels will boot. |

Frame buffer support as suggested upon a recent update: |

* Checking for suitable kernel configuration options... |
51 |
* CONFIG_FB_RADEON: should not be set. But it is. |
52 |
* Please check to make sure these options are set correctly. |
53 |
* Failure to do so may cause unexpected problems. |
