Re: O2 install - use glass console?

I'm trying to install -current on my O2. When the kernel is started it switches into some screen mode undisplayable by its genuine SGI monitor. Should I be able to use a glass console to do this installation? If so, what resolution/refresh is it likely to be trying to use?

I've now installed it using a serial console, but I see the same thing as it boots. dmesg says it is using 1280x1024, but it must be a mad refresh rate or something as neither of the monitors I've tried will sync.
