Hi. I wanted to try running something different and more modern on my old Sun workstation/server here. So I tried running NetBSD on it since it's the only BSD I know can run a X11 session on it. I burned an ISO, checksum turned out good and I can boot it with boot cdrom on my machine The console goes forth for a while but then it goes black screen and I can do nothing with Stop-a, the status lights dont react to me pressing caps-lock etc, nothing shows up on the console. I realized it does this right after the line saying `[1.0000000] machfb0 4096 KB SGRAM 98.924 MHz, maximum RAMDAC clock 230MHz post_div: 2 log2_post_div: 1 mclk_div: 228`. I've put a video on yt with the machine booting here: https://youtu.be/vVXH6TgBaFg (it's not on a CRT monitor so don't worry about flicker)
