installing Debian on AS 1000A
Hi,
I'm in deep trouble in installing Debian from CD on my first ever Alpha
system, AS 1000A 4/266, for the first time in my life. I'm just a
beginner in this Debian-Alpha business. My problem is when I issue
command like this (dka400 is my CD-ROM drive):
>>> boot dka400 -flags 0
to boot and install from the CD, it's getting stuck. It starts with
several checking and after that all the letters become blue (from normal
white on black background) and then it prints this:
......
......
6bfa8001 ret zero,(ra)
2fe00000 ldq_u zero,0(v0)
a6f00040 ldq t9,64 (a0)
.......
.......
*a0370010 ldl t0,16(t9)
40e01642 s8addqt6,0,t1 Trace: 3102c0 3102d8 3102c0
310888 3102c0 31085c 310838 3102c0 31085c 3102c0
and then waitting for ages.
If I only use "boot dka400" it returns me "aboot>" prompt after a while.
Any idea what's wrong?
Thanks in advance!!!
Santanu
