Ok, I'll admit I'm not very scientific in my testing.  I've booted the
kernel with internal video, shutdown, switched the monitor cable over to
the rasterops card, and booted again.  I can see that the system is hanging
when the nubus is initialized.

I think that Paul is right in saying that the card is in 24bit mode.  I am
booting in 1bit, but when the card is initialized, it displays a 24bit
color RasterOps logo.  This is where the three screens appear.  I think
that the card is simply not getting reset back to the original settings.
Perhaps the kernel is not waiting long enough.  I notice that MacOS takes a
few seconds longer when the screen is up before it begins the normal boot
process.
