Hello everyone,
	I'm seem to be having trouble booting into linux on my 712/60. I hope 
someone can help. I have built a new kernel (from cvs) and also set up 
an nfs root. When I try to boot the linux boots up to the point where it 
says "Cleaning: /tmp/ /var/lock /var/run" and then it just hangs. Any 
idea what is cause it to hang? Could there be a problem with the nfsroot?

James

Possible.  What are you using for your nfsroot?  Does it still respond
to pings?  What console are you using?  Do you get a prompt if you
boot with 'init=/bin/sh'?

For an nfsroot I'm using the debian base from
ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/parisc/binaries/debian/basetars/base-20010404.tar.gz

Yes it still responds to pings.

I don't know... (do you mean sti or serial? if so then I think it is sti 
... whatever is default the config)

How do I do that?
