Hi,

Here I have an HP D370 machine that (during my = holidays) crashed. Since the machine was replaced since long and only = kept running for fast access to old stuff, not a real = problem.

At first, we suspected the boot disk since its led = keeps buring. However, booting HP-UX from CDRom for a new fresh = install, the boot of the kernel crashes at roughly the same point, even = with all disks removed. Hence we suspected the core memory. However, = changing or replacing the memory does not change anything in the = behavoure.

Is there a way to somehow test the hardware of a = PA-Risc machine? Either from HP or from the linux world?

Kind of like the test tools as found on the (intel-) = linux distributions?

btw: I can get debian-woody booted up to the message = that if this is the last message on screen, check the faq. A second = terminal (HP 700/96) on tty1 shows a lot of (vt100?) junk. How can I = either put the HP700/96 terminal in VT100 mode or whats the magic name = of this terminal in the 'TERM=3D...' kernel parameter?
