Bug#273232: debian-installer: alpha netboot image only works with serial console



Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
Version: rc1

i am not able to sucessfully get the alpha netboot image to work without using
a serial console.

when i try:

boot ewa0 -fl ""

it downloads and loads the image, loads the initrd, and begins starting
the kernel with the options root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=16384 devfs=mount,dall
and then hangs.

it basically works if i use a serial console and specify:

boot ewa0 -fl "root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=16384 devfs=mount,dall console=ttyS0,9600"

live well,
  vagrant
