Sender: parisc-linux-admin@lists.parisc-linux.org Errors-To: parisc-linux-admin@lists.parisc-linux.org List-Help: List-Post: List-Subscribe: , List-Id: parisc-linux developers list List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: After using my CD burner to create several nice coasters, I have been able to create a couple of CD's from which my J2240 will attempt to boot. I think that I am almost there, but need someone to show me the error of my ways. Disclaimer: I am not a System Admin by trade. I have been an HP-UX user since about version 7, but have not had a box of my own to play with until I pulled this J2240 from the trash. The system is a J2240 2-way, 2.5GB RAM, 2x8GB internal FW-SCSI Disks, DDS-III, internal Toshiba SCSI CD-ROM, 21" graphics console. Here's what I get when I try to boot from the 0.9.2 iso CD after changing my boot path to the internal CD-ROM (SESCSI.2.0): Boot IO Dependent Code (IODC) revision 153 HARD Booted palo ipl 0.92 root@spqr Mon Jun 25 23:03:13 CEST 2001 0/vmlinux32 2853588 bytes @ 0x6ad6800 0/vmlinux64 3585851 bytes @ 0x6d8f800 0/ramdisk 1991209 bytes @ 0x70fb000 Command Line: 'root=/dev/ram console=tty0 sti=0 sti_font=VGA8x16 TERM=linux' Kernel: partition 0 file /vmlinux Ramdisk: partition 0 file /ramdisk Warning: Kernel name doesn't end with 32 or 64...
