Re: Scorpio Jr. Installation report



Please see <http://parisc-linux.org/release-0.9/systems.html>.

The tested hardware:            715/Mirage {64,80,100}
The not-yet-supported hardware: 715/Scorpio {33,50,75}

So, your system is not supported atm - sorry about that.

You should try a serial install anyway, I'd expect that to
get as far as installing pkgs before it died.  The README
does say to expect more success with serial installs.
