Hello

I'm a bit stumped on why you are getting a black screen (now/again/at all).
I  have no solution for you to add into your "bag of tricks"...:-(

The black screen bug is dead and I now see the red-color FAI text logo for the first time, along with the full diagnostic output on the fai-client display. In addition, now when fai-client build aborts it drops to the ...# prompt and waits for me like it is supposed to. And ssh works fine. All good news.

Truthfully -- I have modified a few things but I can not get back to conditions where the black screen existed. So I have no reproducible problem and simple modification.

I did have one disappointing event. To add a package to nfsroot, I ran "fai-make-nfsroot -k" but got no log entry in /var/log/fai. It needs to happen a few more times before calling it a problem.

System build on the fai-client still does not finish successfully for demohost, but I can now see what is going on.
Thanks for your guidance.
