 Replying to [comment:5 axeld]:
 > Since you only see the message once, it looks like the second call
 succeeds. I take it also does not work with failsafe video mode of
 800x600x16 on the internal screen?

 Oh :) - it does actually boot to a desktop when forced to either
 800x600x16 or 800x600x32. The latter seems to take several minutes from
 the rocket icon before it shows a blue background. (probably why I assumed
 it had failed before)

 If I don't specify a mode manually, it never seems to get to a desktop at
 all, even after sitting overnight.

 > Does the machine really hang, or can you talk to it via the network?

 Yeah, I believe it is still technically running, just without a desktop -
 I see the activity light on my USB ethernet adapter blinking (no built-in
 ethernet on this one).

 On a side note, there is something fundamentally wrong with Haiku on this
 machine - it runs amazingly slow (only 430mhz P3 Celeron, but it's still
 not running properly). Haiku doesn't seem to keep proper time on this
 machine either. I timed how long it took for 10 seconds to tick off the
 system clock with Haiku running, and it was ~72 seconds wall time.

 I'm guessing there's some kind of timer issue at work here.
