I found the video.S file in the kernel-source(gnna try 2.2.14), as to what I NEED to change I am clueless. Do you know where its docs are? No I am not running xdm - the display turns off after the kernel's md driver init and before the scsi init. Perhaps all I need to do is compile a kernel w/pout scsi in it....
