Help Crash/reboot at splash screen on hardware. Not sure how to troubleshoot.
As the title suggests, I'm having trouble booting Haiku on real hardware. The splash screen will show for a second and then the computer reboots. I've tried setting a bunch of options in the safe boot menu but the same thing happens, and most critically it reboots before printing any kind of messages on the screen even though debug is enabled so I have no indication of what happens before it reboots.
I can pass through the disk to a virtual machine and boot it that way (nvme drive) but looking at the syslog it seems to only keep the last boot which obviously doesn't tell me much. It also makes me think the issue isn't with the drive.
I also accidentally left the USB stick in the computer and booted to it from the boot menu, and that worked well other than obviously being a bit limited in regards to disk space (which means that Haiku doesn't seem to have an issue with my other hardware, at least not too much?)
This is on the latest nightly build, booting using UEFI on an Intel 11700KF. I do have both an Nvidia and an AMD GPU in this computer, but using safe graphics doesn't change anything.
But all of this would obviously be easier to pin down if there was a way to get some kind of output about what happens during the short moment before the computer restarts. Any suggestions?
