I hadn't, didn't know we had bootable ISOs. They're not mentioned anywhere
in the INSTALL notes.

Tried the 2.0.2 alpha ISO. It got into the kernel, but only just barely:

If somebody would like me to poke at the debugger, just tell me what
commands you want run and I'll post the output.

Also: I have two of these things. One of them seems to have a dead NVRAM
battery (it says there's an NVRAM error when it's doing its power-on
tests) but is otherwise intact. I'd be glad to donate that one to a
developer in hopes of getting Jensen support really working.
