OK - retried it on the Blueberry. Same result with Colony 5, except that I now no longer have any failures regarding console
fonts or similar (ie. points 1 and 2 of the original report no longer occur).

I tried again using the options 'live video=ofonly'. This time I saw more errors, a large number were about missing symbols when
trying to start the X server, and it died with a signal 7. However, the log also warned that seeing missing symol reports might
not be the true cause of the error.

It still didn't boot with these options - it died, with the last on-screen message being 'Starting anac(h)ronistic scheduler'. I
don't know if that's actually related however, it's possible the X and GDM problems in the background caused it.

Shame I can't get the log off the machine - is there any way of starting a second console? I tried Apple-F2 but got nothing.

Cheers,
Ian
