Debian bootfloppies with -pa22 fails on 720/50

[Albert Strasheim <fullung@ilink.nis.za>]

Hello,

I followed Richard Hirst's instructions:

 palo -f /dev/null -k vmlinux -r root.bin -s lifimage \
        -c "0/linux HOME=/ root=/dev/ram initrd=0/ramdisk"

to modify the current Debian binary-hppa root.bin to boot 2.4.9-pa22 on
my 720/50 (via rbootd lifimage). However, the problems from the 0.9.2
CD-ROM install returned:

Linux version 2.4.9-pa22 (fullung@dogbert) (gcc version 3.0.2 20010829 (prerelease)) #8 Sat Sep 22 02:57:21 SAST 2001
...
RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
handle_interruption() pid=1 command='init'
handle_interruption() pid=1 command='init'
handle_interruption() pid=1 command='init'
...

I'd be happy to test ANY (ANY! :-)) patches the great hackers of the
PA-RISC domain might have to offer. My HP is depending on you to get the
sweetest distro in the world installed! :-)

Regards,

Albert
