To get 256 PseudoColor to work, you need
a) either one of Paul Goyette's SLOTMAN kernel or Colin Wood's LKM,
AND
b) a NuBus or PDS video card that works with a)
It sounds a lot like you're trying to run the server in 256 color mode
without those. Without those, you can only do Monochrome (B&W), some
FixedGray modes, or 16-bit TrueColor.
