Tags: lenny kernel not booting alpha
The linux-image that ships with Lenny will not boot on my Alpha architecture. The kernel tries to boot, but I'm immediately dumped back into the SRM console. I'm able to boot with 2.6.18-6 from Etch. Please let me know what more debugging info I can provide.

Alpha will be removed from the archive, closing this bug.
