ok black screen ... is the system still running ? One slight bug that I have
not fixed yet is that if you are using VRAM you should make sure that the Video
DRAM field is 0
Otherwise the boot starts on VRAM, DRAM gets allocated, printing switches to
DRAM but the screen still is drawn from VRAM.
In this case you get a black screen but it is still possible to log in and do
things blindfolded.

The Video DRAM field current should only be used on machines without VRAM and
should be set to the amount of DRAM to be reserved for screen memory.
