See https://github.com/openSUSE/gfxboot/issues/7.

It doesn't start on Chromebooks as it doesn't find/can't set a video
mode.

It just hangs in there.

With kvm /dev/sdb on another machine I can see it correctly gives
resolution list.

Right, yes it does react to Esc, I can get the boot: menu with the
harddisk/linux/upgrade etc options. So it's not hanged.

test iso 2: show active vbe mode and try to use it

Please test this one. Ideally it shows the current mode and then lets
you continue.

Anything can happen, but I'd like at least to know the mode number.

test iso 3: also list available modes

Please test this one. It should list all available modes on the first
text screen. Otherwise nothing has changed.

Please post a screenshot of the mode list (provided there is anything).

We have image! Sorry for bad colors, they are normal red/green/blue for
all the blocks.

The text is ip 26d: 2010b0a9.4 (ie the '1' is what's barely visible
under green color in the photo)

Ok, what you see there is the debug window. You can single-step through the code
with 'Enter', 'ESC' leaves the debug mode. The dots were just sprayed all over
the graphics framebuffer.

If you go two steps further with 'Enter' (provided it works), what number 
appears
in the data window (upper left)? (The ip in the bottom left should show '27a'.)

Below in the bottom box there is also:
err   0
ip   27a:       45.7

Let's continue after next week then probably.
