ok, I found now the problem, it was a combination of a missing driver |
| 12 |
and a new device name (changed from sdc to sde). |

But really it cannot be that it is impossible to scroll the kernel |
| 15 |
messages up? Is there really no way existing to get to the message above? |
| 16 |
And take a camera is absolutely impossible, from grub to kernel panic it |
| 17 |
takes around 1 second, that is faster then the display to switch the to |
| 18 |
the correct output mode. |
