Anyway trying to upgrade form non debian dist to debian (potato) on my
7220/200, as it is old world I used the hfs floppy image. Anyway it boots
fine but then the video mode is at a frequency such that no text is clear
and it is moving around on the screen a bit (like running X i modes a
machine cant handle)
You cant pass a video mode to platinumfb.
Do you have 834x624 and more than 8 bit color depth? If yes, change the
resolution or set the color depth to 8 bit.
