Re: Install on an AlphaServer 2100 => It boot the kernel. Youpy !!!
Hi,
I can boot the newer woody floppy images. To do this, I've setup
the floppy unit a 1m44 one (even if it's a 2M88) in the ARC bios,
then switch back to the SRM and type "boot dva".
Now, I should learn how to load additional drivers on the disk 3 and 4,
since the setup detected not hard drive. Anyways I'll search tomorrow
before asking you.
Thanks a lot to all for your help.
Best regards,
Pierre.
