These options are not shown upon reboot.
I just checked and it appears the fix I was thinking of was applied in

IOW alpha 3 and all later > nightlies contain the feature in a generally working state (AFAIK).Just to stress - it needs to be a WARM reboot, as the data is only in RAM and will disappear if it loses power. The "reboot" command from KDL should hopefully lead to a sufficiently warm reboot for it to work.
PANIC: acquire_spinlock(): Failed to acquire spinlock 0x80175a08 for a long time!That is a known issue. Disabling SMP might help. Since you get to KDL anyway, using the "syslog" command yields better results, though.Known issue, but probably a serious issue, in my case.
What wasn't clear from Ingo's reply is that this "known issue" relates to printing debug output during boot, but doesn't affect a normal boot.
In summary it sounds like what might be best is to do a normal boot, and when you hit KDL enter "syslog" and take photos of the resulting output pages. Start a new ticket on dev.haiku-os.org and post the photos there.
