We have a large number of older iMacs at our school board that we would like to continue using. Since MacOS is no longer supported on these devices we are considering using them as kiosks since the students all have O365 accounts that they could access through a browser.
After running the initial config wizard and then installing to the local drive everything appears to be successful. I remove the USB stick and reboot, the splash screen comes up, so I know the boot loader has worked, but then the screen just goes blank.
Any ideas on what to try next?

Installing Kiosk to Intel iMac fails with blank screen after boot
Hello,
1) Please generate debug log in the wizard and send it to support@porteus-kiosk.org.
Will start from looking at the hardware specification.
2) Please also provide your kiosk config (maybe certain parameter triggers the kernel/Xorg crash).
Thanks
