Black screen during boot to Chromiun OS

[Gavin Hsueh]

Test machine: Intel Pineview platform N450 CPU.

The PC can boot from USB disk normally, and install to Hard disk via "/
usr/sbin/chromeos-install" command.
Reboot from HDD, but faild, only have backlight, and no any display.
Press"Ctrl+Alt+F2" hotkey, can type character.

Please give me some advice, thank you!

The Chromium OS version is: R20-2066.0.2012_04_02_1932-a1

This is probably my bug. I let it sit far longer than intended, but fixing it now.

I expect to have the fix in, in a couple of days.

Same problem here.

Please, let us know when the issue is fixed and ready for download.

Thanks.

I just sent this message to the wrong group. I assume I'm just seeing
the same problem reported here, right?

I followed the quickstart to the letter (I think), and at the end of
the process I have a USB Flash Drive that, when I boot from it, gives
me the pretty chromium logo page, then the screen goes black, the
monitor blinks on and off a few times, then nothing.

I'd like to see whether I could use chromium in a Kiosk setting, so
I'm booting a pretty standard Intel board with a discrete NVIDIA
graphics card. Is this my problem? Does chromium only work on
netbooks
like the ones listed on the compatibility page?

I also tried using the UFD to boot a Clevo high-end laptop (also with
a discrete NVIDIA card, although this one is mobile), and on that I
didn't even see the chromium logo at boot (although, judging from the
blinking lights, it might have been booting and just not putting
anything on the screen).

Does what I'm trying to do make sense? (Using chromium as a Kiosk O/
S?) Can Chromium drive high-end discrete graphics cards? (If not, is
adding NVIDIA's proprietary drivers to my build a possibility?)
