For the first time in my life today, I had one of those moments where I said, "Wait a minute, I should capture this little gem with the low-quality camera built into my cell phone!" The moment in question?
It would seem that Taco Bell uses some embedded linux variant for these devices. You can barely make it out in the low-res picture, which mostly displays the machine's BIOS POST (at a 90 degree rotation, no less), but down in the bottom right corner the screen was frozen with an ominous "LI".
I guess "The second-stage boot loader loaded, but could not run."
I tried to explain that to the gnome inside the device taking my order, but she sounded confused. So I just got some tacos instead.
