Hi, Trying to boot Debian on IBM RS/6000 43P-140 (7043 - 604e 200 MHz) with no succes, and messing with the OF configuration, somehow I've got stucked with the serial console keyboard working with the local video in text mode.
After some tests and resets I've managed to have the local keyboard back, first in text mode, and then in graphics mode. It didn't happen to have the local keyboard with the serial console video. After all, I wasn't able to boot this machine with the available install boot images, even from other distributions like YellowDog, SuSE and LinuxPPC.
