You can enter the boot console if holding the "SHIFT" key down while booting
(after the BIOS flashed the keyboard LEDs). (To set scroll lock is another
possibility).
If have a running NO or Bluebottle installation you can copy the "Init="
string etc. settings from there.
If not modified in the boot console, this CD assumes a working VESA 2.0
1024x768x16bit mode.
