[Bug 32714] Installation problem on HP Blade with the ILO Remote Console

[Herbert Straub]

Public bug reported:

Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
     Assignee: Ben Collins
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
I have problems installing Dapper Flight 4 on a HP Blade over the ILO
Remote Console (works with Firefox and JAVA). After booting the system
with attached Flight 4 CD the installation menu is displayed correctly.
But if i select server and hit return, the Linux kernel starts and after
few seconds the Conole display is black.

I try to change the VGA Mode with F3 to 600 x 600 x 24 and this works.
The normal  installation procedure starts.

The first boot shows the same problem. The screen is after the Grub
message black. I changed the grub kernel line to:

kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-15-amd64-generic
root=/dev/cciss/c0d0p1 ro fb800x600 quiet
