Try appending vga=normal to the boot options. This might help if you
expect to have a vesa framebuffer and haven't set the kernel up right...

If that doesn't work perhaps the kernel doesn't have vga / console
support, in which case check that you have the right selections for vga
console things, i know it's changed in 2.6, and have seen a few posts
(elsewhere) pointing this out.
