Did you use 600x800 or 800x600 ? 800x600 should be better.

Bye,

Proper syntax:

video=pm2fb:mode:1024x768-75

The above is for 1024x768 @ 75 Hz

 Hi PaSha,thank for the help,but i´ve tried that way aswell,but no cigar,i think changes to pal no matter what video option i try to use,if try video=amifb:pal it works,but i try the bvision video mode...well you know.
 But i can´t quit now,why does work for some and not for me?

Try sticking "video=amifb:off" in the arguments as well,

This is my line:
bootstrap --apus -k vmapus root=/dev/sdb2 video=pm2fb:mode:1024x768-75 console=tty0 nobats

For some strange reason I never got it to work without the 'console=tty0' bit...
