If I do a boot scsi.6.0 isl palo displays the "options" menu and asks for some action (number or 'b'). At this point the box is dead - no response from keyboard or serial. Is this supposed to work on this HW? Can I control the console output (serial or STI/PDC) with a console=... parameter in the boot string. This is the CDROM 0.5 stock kernel+palo installed on a HD. Can I change the /dev/console device numbers to do the same? Before I get too far.. Is the STI mode working at all on a 712/60? The docs and reports are a bit vague on this. TIA. Regards, Robin.

My 712/60 is an old decommissioned dns server. Getting rid of H-PUX makes it a great toy - thanks guys. -- ASIC Design Engineer Tellabs Denmark A/S Direct: +45 4473 2942 robin.theander@tellabs.com
