I can't get it to boot. 1. I have the minimal LiveCD install-alpha-minimal-2004.3-r1.iso. 2. MD5s check out. 3. CD Burn verified OK. 4. Firmware updated to V7.0 (was X5.0, I think) What happens: 1. power on computer 2. >>> show dev ... dka400.4.0.6.0 DKA400 RRD43 1084 ... 3. >>> boot dka400 -flags 0 (boot dka400.4.0.6.0 -flags 0) block 0 of dka400.4.0.6.0 is a valid boot block .... aboot: no disklabel found. iso: Max size 27007 Long zone size: 2048 iso: First datazone:40 Root inode number 8190 aboot: loading uncompressed /boot/gentoo... aboot: loading compressed /boot/gentoo... aboot: zero-filling 644040 bytes at 0xfffffc0000828c40 aboot: loading initrd (1222017 bytes/1193 blocks) at 0xfffffc0007d0e000 oboot: starting kernel /boot/gentoo with arguments root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc looptype=zisofs loop=/zisofs cdroot 4.
