Hi,
I tried the Getting Started guide for Intel NUC [1] on a NUC7i5BNH (Kaby Lake i5-7260U) [2] with
the latest BIOS [3], however I'm having issues getting ACRN working on Clear Linux version 27210 (installed using clear-26770-installer.img.xz [4]), and I was hoping if someone can help
to confirm the issues below or advice on how to troubleshoot them.
In Step 6 [5], rebooting the NUC seems to cause the NUC to freeze at the splash screen. Selecting "ACRN" from the F10 Boot Menu only shows a blank screen.
I had to undo Step 3 [5] in order to get to the ACRN Service OS Boot Menu as shown in Step 6 [5]. I'm able to boot "The ACRN Service OS", although "dmesg | grep -i acrn" reported:

The kernel info as reported by "uname -a":
Linux clr-575a8d97bf9f40caad9b8c3244748f08 4.19.8-1901111952.iot-lts2018-sos #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Jan 12 04:05:35 UTC 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I've also tried to rollback to Clear Linux version 26770 and reapplied all the steps [5], unfortunately I'm still seeing the same splash screen freeze/blank screen issue.
