Hi,
Can anyone help.
I have installed os4.1 on my sam460. When I turn the computer on I get a black screen for about 90 seconds and suddenly workbench appears.
I don't get to see the booting screen/options.
Thanks.

Re: Black screen until os4.1 loads
You may need to set the primary boot display to pcie in the uboot settings.
Once you have booted into OS 4.1 start a CLI and type Nvgetvar then the Enter key .
Look for the line that says video_activate.
If it is not video_activate=pci then you have to change it to this.
Do this by typing Nvsetvar video_activate=pci then press the enter key .
Once this is done reboot the machine
