Hello boys and girls.
For all these, who, as I have multiboot, kernel-power49 and just want to see boot messages during boot (framebuffer console) there exist a solution.
Anything you need is to load the fbcon module with the command:
modprobe fbcon
The Problem is to put the command very early at boot, so that You see all boot messages during booting (and during shutdown)
I have a multiboot installed, so this is not possible to use bootmenu.
In this case, it is possible to put this command very early to
/sbin/preinit
I put
modprobe fbcon
in the line 9 of /sbin/preinit
after the line
export PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
For People, who has bootmenu instead of multiboot, is possible to put modprobe fbcon to /bootmenu.sh
Pali Rohar has helped to solve this problem,
Thank you very much, Pali!
But please, be careful!
Playing with /sbin/preinit or /bootmenu.sh can put Your N900 to boot loop or make some other "very bad things"
Sorry for my bad English and best greetings from Berlin/Germany
