[Oberon] non-X LNO:Framebuffer ?

[eas lab]

Modern PC's with the new UEFI booting have succeeded in
frustrating  the open-source Linux system from free-riding on their
WinTel hardware.

Only after great difficulty have I got a partial [ lacking X ]
linux running.  Our LNO, which I had dated as: 121104 was able to
also run without X, on my now stolen hardware.
Ie. using a frame-buffer.

------------
A safety copy of the files of my stolen system, using the good
old proven start-script, now gives the following error symptoms:

   line 2:  2162 Floating point exception./oberon

and ---/LNO121104/oberon.log == ...

--------------- end of useful log file.

Please help me recover ETHO's unique ability to
see and manipulate the contents of multiple files,
on the same screen.

PS. wily, which copied ETHO, also needs X.

Thanks for advice.
