CONFIG_BOOTX_TEXT breaks PowerBook 3400 with BootX

[Finn Thain]

Hi All,

When I build kernels with CONFIG_BOOTX_TEXT enabled I can't boot a PB 3400 
with BootX. I get a black screen with "Welcome to Linux" at the top, then 
it appears to hang. Debian kernels are configured this way and suffer the 
same problem.

I don't know if Quik is affected. It is a bit of a hassle at install time 
since the (mediabay) floppy drive can't co-exist with the (mediabay) 
CDROM, so I'm using BootX to do the Debian install.

The Debian Sarge 2.6.8-4 kernel does not seem to have this problem though 
kernel.org 2.6.16 and later versions do.

Any ideas?

Tia,
Finn
