I plugged in an extra 256Mb RAM and an old 4X scsi cdrom drive, hooked ye olde dumbe terminal, and pushed yonder button. I'm impressed, it came with a completely unconfigured HP/UX B11.11 so I got to set up my root password, network, etc. The dang thing has internet connectivity already! Now I am in somewhat of a dilemma. I got this bohemoth to be a parisc-linux box, but one hates to wipe a pristine HP/UX which one got for free :-) So now it would appear that I am in need of a new hard drive. My 23GB Seagate Elite will definately not fit inside the case, and I'm using it on the X86 machine anyways. Back to Ebay... I can still test out the latest 0.9.3 cdrom image which I will burn one this weekend. I don't have an EVC adapter yet so I can't test the STI / X11 yet. This machine seems to have been mis-advertised and actually contains an EG board rather than a FX. I am disappointed yet happy because the EG will run X in linux right?
