You can load the srm_en module which creates /proc/srm_environment,

Hi all,
Some of you may be aware that SMP has been broken on Alpha for most of
2.6. As of linux-image-2.6.18-3-smp, I'm pleased to report that it boots
and runs acceptably because scsi_mod is compiled in (bug 369517). However,
things like ip_conntrack and ipv6 are still broken - inserting them

I'm investigating using Debian-alpha to replace tru64 unix on our

options for LVM or RAID type
whether or not to load partman-md. And since it's a fresh
partition that's been created there's no md signature to detect.

Not a buildd, but [1] notes that there's an alpha porting machine waiting
for more than a year to be set up by DSA. I don't know if there's an RT
ticket, but there is a bug [2] about this, which was closed this week,
although it looks like by accident.

That's probably due to the FTPMaster team meeting - they've stopped
