Author: Dave Turner Date: To: dng Subject: [DNG] devuan jessie crashes during boot on 10 year old iMac
I installed a very minimal debian squeeze.
Did a dist-upgrade to a very minimal wheezy.
And then followed the dev1fanboy instructions for the dist-upgrade from
wheezy to devuan jessie.
It all seemed to go so well until I rebooted.
The usual messages whizzed past in a very large font, then the usual
blank screen before it comes back with a nice small font, but, nothing!
Just a blank screen.
Is it possible my wheezy installation was a bit too minimal?
Or maybe my /boot partition was bit too small? I set it at 256MB.
All suggestions welcome.
And as an FYI - dist-upgrade from squeeze to devuan-jessie fails. You
have to go via wheezy.
