Alpha does't boot



Hello!
We are trying to install slink in an floppyless alpha machine with SRM.

We first boot from dka6 as it's said on documentation. Next we boot with a
generic kernel:
aboot> /boot/generic/linux root=/dev/scd0 load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=1
The kernel boots, but then it ask to me to insert the root floppy (that I
haven't, because I have no floppy unit). I push ENTER and the sistem 
halt with a message like this.
HALT CODE RECEIVED

¿How can I install linux without needing a floppy?

-Tito
