| Please post full unedited dmesg from bsd.rd and from bsd.

| Since you have no network with bsd, but you do have network with
| bsd.rd, you can write a file with bsd e.g. "dmesg > /dmesg.bsd",

Saving these files to a floppy (for the oldtimers) or USB attached
storage has proven quite useful for me.
