Has anyone seen this before?  What causes two rows of boot icons?

You have built Haiku without enabling the "official" mode, which means
your install is de-branded and the Haiku logo is removed from various
places, including the boot screen.

Interesting to see this in practice. I had read about this in the documentation about licensing. One thing, though - the absence of the logo comes _after_ reinstalling with a nightly iso image (hrev49xxx I don't know the exact one), over the previous newer installation from source (hrev50167).

However, you have a mismatch between the bootloader (which shows the
logo and empty icons) and the kernel (which shows the lit up icons).
When the logo is disabled, the icons are moved upwards to keep the
alignment of the whole thing.

Ok, thank you for this explanation.  A nice touch.

So, a bootloader with logo + a kernel without logo results in what you
get.

Makes sense.

This should not prevent the system from booting, so your real problem is
probably elsewhere. It would be nice if you could get the boot menu to
work so you can enable on-screen debug and see where the boot stops.

I will try to do this some more.
