Bryan,

What CD are you using.  I couldn't get the .5 version to work on my 
735.  I did create my own kernel and booted via the network. Let me 
know if you need any help.

Shouldn't matter. Where PDC thinks the console is and where linux
thinks it is can be two different places.

yes. Assuming linux can find and support port A.

Probably not. typically scsi.6.0 is the built-in hard disk.
Do "sea scsi" and see what shows up. CD-ROM is normally SCSI ID 2.
(Though it doesn't have to be).

Bryan,

   Get the latest PALO tree.  The directions are in the README file.  I 
found if you follow the kernel building instructions from the parisc-
linux.org web site, you can't go wrong....

Let's assume that making a CD is easier. I can

Question: what's the parameters to mkisofs to

thing?

Still might be a problem with what PDC thinks is "scsi" in this
case.  scsi.6.0 means "target 6 on the scsi bus."  Since you have
two SCSI busses (the internal fw and the external) it might be
confused about what bus it's talking to.  As Grant suggested, 
"sea scsi" (or just "sea") should help.

Yes, you want the IPL on there.  IPL means "stop when you get to
the IPL (initial program loader)".  Without the IPL it's expecting
your IPL program to be ISL with an AUTO boot file to boot hp-ux.
