I have a PC164SX and I'm using SRM and aboot. Do you find that it
randomly wont reboot sometimes? I cannot off hand remember the error
message but it says to press some key (like reset, but not the reset
key) and only a power cycle fixes it.
I've never been able to reliably reboot the alpha, leaving aside kernel
not working type problems.
