My P4 Netvista works fine on real hardware with both nova and sel4 CD

[Paul Dufresne]

I decided to test my computers in reverse side:
P4 would test the CD
Core 2 Duo would run minicom to capture log files.

I was not expecting it to work, although I had some doubt because
a quite older version was running on that P4.

It appears both my CDs of Genode 16.08 (sel4.iso and nova.iso) have worked fine.
I think that's the first time I was seeing running fine on real hardware.
Well, I did saw the screen on one laptop I tried, but it was not
accepting any input.

Now, the monitor I use (well a relatively old Daenyx tv), was not
working with my other
Celeron D computer... and I was thinking it was EDID that was not use
correctly, but now
I begin to suspect ATI video card was not happy with Genode.

I believe the P4 react better because of Intel 845 chipset it use.

The biggest surprise is the P4 have only 512 Mb:

Well, I guess there is no need to include capture files.
