Compaq-HP ES45 woody install
Fellows,
has somebody ever had success installing woody or sid in an ES45
(4x21264x1.25GHz)??
I had no problems with potato and an ES40, but I think the ES45 has
something different, because after aboot and the right paramenters, the
screen turns black as if it were echoing to the console.... but the
console remains deaf too... all the ttyS and the RJ too....
To summarize:
potato+ES40 = OK
potato+ES45 = black screen
woody+ES45 = black screen
unstable(temp distribution)+ES45 = black screen
redhat+ES45 = OK but I dont want RH....
Therefore I`ll stick with Tru64 until I solve this problem.
The beauty of these machines is that the HD is hot swap.. When I want to
do tests, I remove the precious running Tru64 and pop an empty HD.
Thanks,
Sincerely,
Stefano Curtarolo
(happy owner of an ES45).
