Tested run/demo on nova: liquid_fb tried to call an invalid object

[Paul Dufresne]

Ok, so I burn my var/run/demo.iso file from my build directory (8 MB,
impressively small!) to a CD and tried it.

My big surprise when I ran it on my computer was to hear the 56k modem
call a number.
I heard the operator voice, so that I know it did not join it's
destination fine.
I first tought that the log output was going to COM1 serial port, and
that somehow it had to have some "ATDT some-number in it" which now
seems unbelievable to be just a coincidence.

I guess either Nova or Genode is setup to make a phone call.
Anyway...

I was happy to see that the disk was working fine on my computer.
I was not sure it would work, my CPU not having virtualization support
as far as I know:

I've seen that the "tried to call an invalid object:" problem does not
happen always with liquid_fb. This message aso happen with nitpick
(which does not seems to show anything).
The invalid signal-context capability error did not come back.

I tried the CD in my Pentium-4 computer.
It was rebooting in loop as soon as Grub did finish loading each modules.
I guess I was expecting it more or less.
I think Genode 64 bits was build for Nova, and the Pentium 4 does not
support 64 bits.

It's fun to see such a small CD image doing so much!
