Here it is! to change the boot command in order to make the system boot
from PALO partition and not from /boot/...
So the final string (interact with IPL) must be
0/vmlinux64 root=/dev/md2 HOME=/ console=ttyS0 TERM=vt100
the vt102 terminal get my console *dirty* of character, therefore I prefer
vt100 with seem a little bit *cleaner*.
In the syslog of the installer i found:
root=/dev/ram init=/linuxrc console=ttyS0 TERM=vt100 palo_kernel=0/vmlinux64
Unfortunately I found:
May 16 11:51:20 (none) syslog.warn klogd: iosapic: hpa not registered for
Hewlett-Packard Company Visualize FX4
...
May 16 11:51:20 (none) syslog.warn klogd: stifb: Unsupported gfx card id
0x2fc1066b
It is a pity that the graph card is not supported. However i found a
document, in the hp site if I remember well, about how to recompile OpenGL
drivers for hp workstation. Do you know if it is possible also under
debian?
Thank you so much for your enlightening help
