apparently something broke and debug mode isn't verbose enough #137

Apparently, as soon as I saw the randomize option, I inserted 50 bmp files and hook them up But the boot freezes at the manufacturer logo I can still access the logon and use the computer through bios since I had a backup boot entry The debug mode ouput a loop of random image replace with weird position of around 3 million x and 0 y (there are still a few 0,0) , then after a while it output "Started bootmgfw, why are we still here" for some moment then restart the cycle, probably because of timeout Did I broke something? Since it did not output any error? I can't take any picture since I don't have anything else to take a screenshot with

Can you upload the config.txt which you created?

BlockyReduxy0 commented 1 year ago

config.txt this seems to be it

Looks like you have changed the next boot loader to boot=\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi. If you installed HackBGRT with the setup tool (which, as of version 1.5.1, replaces the said file with HackBGRT), you will need to change that line back to boot=\EFI\HackBGRT\bootmgfw-original.efi, unless you are using another boot loader (or EFI boot entry) to load HackBGRT directly, in which case you can just "disable" HackBGRT in the setup program.

Please try the new release. If you run into problems during installation, please provide setup.log file for any further assistance. If installation succeeds but the image is not changed properly, change the last line in config.txt to debug=1, reinstall and provide a picture of the debug output shown during boot, along with setup.log from the installation.

Closing bugs from obsolete versions. Please reopen if this is still valid for the most recent version (which also provides a lot more detailed debug output).
