== Booting Linux == A CompactFlash card is held to the camera. On one side it says "Memory Card" with space to write the description, on the other side it says "CompactFlash Digital Memory Card 16 GB Memory Card". No branding is visible aside from "Copyright 2003 Memory Technology Company" is shown. Voice: "My CompactFlash card finally arrived." A DB9 cable is shown connected to the board with the text "NULL" scribbled on it in marker. A screen shows the text "Loading bzImage... ok" and <nowiki>''</nowiki>Loading initramfs-fc2+...ok" Voice: "So with the help of a null modem cable I was able to boot Linux." The screen starts to print a bunch of text, such as "Linux version 5.16.0-rc2+ (jookia@titan) (gcc (GCC) 11.1.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.36.1) #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Nov 29 17:34:47 AEDT 2021" Voice: "Specifically, Alpine Linux with a custom built kernel with the Geode video driver enabled." Another screen is black but then blinks on, with the text lines "Welcome to Alpine Linux 3.15", "Kernel 5.16.0-rc2+ on an i586 (/dev/tty1)" and "localhost login: " visible in the bottom left, with the first few letters of each line cut off. Voice: "After a little white booting we get... VGA output?" The camera cuts closer to show the bright white text. Voice: "It's a wrongly positioned login prompt?" A shot from later shows the text barely visible against the screen's backlight black colour. The text shimmers with analog interference of some kind. Voice: "Thought after a few minutes it starts to fade." A shot from even later shows a faint outline of the text despite the image being manipulated heavily to show the text. Voice: "Eventually it fades enough to become invisible."
