Well, after doing more tests, actually it did not froze
(just the
screen went black), but I did not give it enough time to
initialize
the keyboard

Hmm... it has relation: when I type the "boot
cd:,ofwboot.xcf" command
as the first command in the OF session, the framebuffer
inits with
green-on-white letters but then it goes black. But when I
first type
other OF commands, the framebuffer does not start and the
screen goes
black just after typing the boot command.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Just in case it helps, this is the part of the kernel
messages when
the screen goes black.
