AFAIK the C8000s have unsupported serial ports / network card.

Adding a real cheap serial card worked very well for me with the 'latest'
HPPA netinstall iso.

Balint succeeded installing a C8000 by using a USB CD-ROM drive (+
additional serial card).

See threads:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-hppa/2010/05/msg00005.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-hppa/2010/05/msg00004.html

There are a few more threads from Jan-May 2010 that may contain some
useful information about installing on a C8000.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Geert
