Installing Debian on AlphaStation 255



Hi .*,

I'm trying to install Debian on a AlphaStation 255 via bootp boot and
network install.
The installation crashes when "installing essential packages", exactly
when "setting up sysvinit". Since it's sid (woody and potato don't seem
to like the 255) it's sysvinit 2.83-2. After creating /dev/initctl,
there is a dpkg warning: architecture 'alpha-none' not in remapping
table and the system crashes, even the console on tty2 isn't usable any
more.
Anything I can do about it, i.e. setting the architecture manually
before setting up sysvinit?

Thx!

Ceya..bF.!.
