When it boots, it complains about not being able to open /dev/fb/0 or /dev/fb0. I can do "ls /dev/fb0" once the system is up and it's there. Could it be that FB isn't working because the board has only 512KB of RAM? ...it's an old server.

BTW. It doesn't work even when I boot from the Live CD. I guess that's a good indication that it's not going to work at all.
