Christoph may've been a little exuberant with his exclamation marks, but
he was dead on about your system having the wrong date.  Please fix the
date on the system you're sending mail from, even if only to make me
happy ...

You haven't said anything about which Linux you're trying to stick on
the box, so presumably you're using the CD?  If so, it's not hanging,
it's just switching to the serial console.  (This is in a FAQ thingy on
the website, I'm sure.)  Hook another system up to the serial A of the
HP box and you'll see what's going on.  Christoph gave the relevant
details in his post so I'll not repeat them here.

Andrew.
