Booting 32bit TC from 64bit efi boots to blank screen with underscore

Also is the mmc device listed in the BIOS (assuming it has one) as the primary boot device?

I tried both 64 and 32 bit versions. Also, yes, the mmc device is listed as the primary boot device in the EFI Bios.

Be aware that our hardware, your Kangaroo and my Computestick, show the same behavior, regardless if it is the on-board eMMC formatted as NTFS, or the optional external micro-sd card. formatted with fat32.
All bios/setup has been checked to see if there was anything special blocking mmc devices. There is no option at least on mine to change this at all. Yet Porteus boots and sees it all. ?
So maybe there is something different between hardcore NUC's, and little computesticks and kangaroos. :)

So, any thoughts as to why multiple other distro's see it all and TC doesn't?
curaga:
Could be a kernel difference (version or config).
PDP-8:
Sure - here come the lsmods:
For reference..
Intel NUC - usb boot - mmc devices *are visible and mountable* - full sized sd-cards anyway.

And for good measure:
Intel Computestick - micro sd card boot - using Porteus Syslinux bootloader. (only works with tce directory on external sdX device). MMC devices still *NOT* seen.

Guess it would have been easier for me to run a diff, but I'm pretty much wiped out now. :)
jimmyjohn:
Would it be useful if I were to provide the same details that PDP-8 provided while booted into a different distro that can see everything?
Rich:
Hi jimmyjohn
An lsmod and a dmesg might be helpful
