Subject: [parisc-linux] Debian sarge netinstall hangs after first boot on b132l
Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2005 18:07:41 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <42D68DCD.3010403@ieee.org> (raw)
Hello,
I got an hp b132l to play with :) and decided to put debian sarge on it,
downloaded the latest netinstall cd from the web (debian site) and
installed using serial console.
The install went ok, after making the initial ramdisk larger (64k
instead of 16), and gave no errors, but after the copying of the files
and doing the first reboot. My system hung. I wasn't able to do anything
(even the power button didn't work).
The last message on my console was the following:
HP SDC: Spunking the self test register to force PUP on next firmware
reset. HP SDC MLC: Registering the System Domain Controller's HIL MLC.
Which is strange because there is no HIL stuff in this machine (this has
something to do with the keyboard if I'm correct, but the b132l uses
ps/2 interfaces for mouse and keyboard).
Another strange thing was that the kernel that was chosen during install
was a smp kernel? (2.6.8...smp something, I didn't pay real attention at
that time)
When I posted a message concerning this issue on a belgian linux
newsgroup, there was someone who said he had experienced the same thing,
and resolved this by booting from a gentoo cd and installing the latest
kernel. Probably I'll attempt the same thing later on but I wanted to
ask if there are other options or if I made some mistake?
Greetings,
Dirk
