Alpha Jensen Install
I have to install Potato on alpha. The problem is that kernel generic.gz on cd set hangs. I found kernel, rescue.bin and ohters (drivers) but there is another problem. I boot them from hd after copying with aboot prompt like this b 4/linux root=/dev/ram initrd=root.bin. It works good, but after dbootstrap shows i have no disks, no cdroms and i can't load drivers.
Could you tell me how to boot drivers? or better how to install Potato. I can deal with partitioning and other things, tell me just how to do a correct boot.
architecture: alpha
model: DEC 2000 Model 500 AXP
memory: 64MB
scsi: AHA1742A
disk: rz28 scsi 2GB
cdrom: rrd44 scsi
network card: dec422
pcmcia: none
I have aboot installed on hd, and disk partitioned like this:
part blocks mount
sda1 4096
sda2 1969152 /
sda3 66560 swap
sda4 15360 /boot
thanks
