AND have modified the boot messages so there is less of a NEED to do
those things; often the messages just remind me that I've left
a thumb drive plugged in that isn't bootable, etc.]
Coincidentally, I rescued a small NAS (10x3T) today with a similar
internal "2 line" display. Hung off a serial port header.
But, I suspect they limit their content *to* exactly 2x16 characters
instead of supporting a more capable interface (that requires scrolling
and a history buffer)
