Is the whole screen white?  Is it KDL you mean?  Can you type bt in there
and get output?

38343 to 38311 still has lots of commits in there but helps more than before.
I realize you use images from haiku-files so hard to test other revisions
in between.

I took quick look.  Maybe related to openfirmware (PPC) changes?
Hard to be sure.  There might be another 2 or 3 other changes which may
have affected you.

Create a ticket with your information and findings.  This bug may never
get fixed unless you properly report it.  Bugs only have a chance of getting
fixed if they are reported on TRAC.
