Re: Debian in a Digital AlphaStation 500a



I have tried to boot debian installation from the srm prompt by typing
"boot -file /boot/linux -flags 0".
But the kernel freezes when it tries to probe pci hw: "PCI: Probing PCI
hardware"; it's the last message i see.
I have also tried to give a "pci=off" in boot options, but it didn't work!
I'm using keyboard\display, not a serial console.
Thx a lot.
