Not getting past black screen after IOConsoleUsers: gIOScreenLock...

Hi! jbwharris

We have the same laptop except for some HW differences. I am following the vanilla laptop guide using open core and did everything to the T with the guide. Doing the install everything works up until this point where the screen goes black after reaching IOConsoleUsers: gIOScreenLock...in verbose. Did this ever happened to you using open core?

Hello.

I am trying to start the installer but I am always seeing the same problem: The boot always breaks and reboots the PC. I don't know if I'm doing the installation right. I have modified the serial of the config file and I have modified the bios but I don't know what else I should do.
