OK! Now it is working!

But.... The screen goes black (the backlight turns off) during boot. It 
happens during the boot process, presumably when it encounters the 
backlight device.

Also, I get to a point where it claims it does not know the boot device. 
When I enter the boot device at the prompt (wd0a) it seems to work as 
usual.

But I still can't see anything with the backlight out (I can see it with a 
real bright light).

Ideas?
