Bug#473877: linux-image-2.6.24-1-alpha-generic: fail to boot
Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-alpha-generic
Version: 2.6.24-5
Severity: important
Since 2.6.24 was getting into testing my alpha machine
has failed to boot with it. I upgraded it to unstable version,
but it also failed to boot.
Messages at boot time are as follows:
aboot: load uncompressed vmlinuz...
aboot: load compressed vmlinuz...
halted CPU 0
halt code = 2
kernel stack not valid halt
PC = 200000000

My machine is Alpha LX164 and cpuinfo tells me
