Yes, I also checked the following detailed table
and I read:
710 | 50MHz | V(verified) | 32(bit) | Once again, Jan Heumann told us that he succeded to
install 0.9.3 on this box!
Like for 710, try not to use tasksel step to install your packages.
Markus Grabert pointed us at this mail about successful X setup on this
box!
and I add that I (Stefano Melchior) work with X since 0.9.3!
I add a section in the Boot HPPA Howto (I don't remember the name) where
I explained some step I did to set X up to work some years ago.
I translated as well in italian, but (it was my fault) I haven't keep
updated! ((:-((
It is time to dig in the past and get the howto add alive ;-P
I remember that I sent to you a link or the document itself

However I tried to boot the April 20 image, but the system displayer the
previously reported error (Guessing which kernel to boot, 32 or
64bit...)
Still something to fix
