Subject: [parisc-linux] trouble booting from palinux-0.5.iso on 712/80
Date: Sat, 23 Dec 2000 16:14:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3A44C147.B56F25CA@gmx.net> (raw)

Hello!
Since yesterday i'm the owner of a HP 712/80 and i've searched along 
the net to find an OS which is able to run on this box. When i found
palinux i downloaded the palinux-0.5.iso. But the booting process
doesn't seem to be successful. In the readme it says that i should
get a login prompt...but i don't get the prompt. The system stops
when saying:
"Switching from PDC console"

Thats all. I have a 12x Plextor cdrom booting from scsi-id 6. I also
tried to boot it from scsi-id 0. The same problem. The system has 
32MB RAM and Boot Rom Version 1.6. Is that perhaps a too old Boot
Rom? I read that it is updateable but cannot find an updated
version on the HP homepage or somewhere else. Can someone tell me 
where i can get an update?
I would give you the complete dmesg but i don't know how to get it
out of that box...since i cannot do anything. Any idea if what
is wrong with that box?


Regards Jens
