on running it real x86 hardware first two penguins are shown then some
lines like
[ 0.1234] ...............
[  0.2567]........................
.................................................
....................................................
.........................................,..........
[ 2.98745] genode blk-driver is loaded
then booting hangs up there without showing any error message
but after removing nic_drv support it shows two more lines below blk-driver
loaded
mount everything
setup networking
and then autologin terminal of l4linux appears
