Hi All,
I thought i would give Mandrake a try on my Alpha. No success so far. My
configuration is:
AlphaPC 164SX (533) [AlphaBIOS]
128 Mb memory
4 x IDE HD
Adaptec AHA-2940
1 x SCSI CD-ROM
1 x SCSI Tapestreamer
Matrox Millenium video card
The story so far:
I created the first cd from the iso from ftp.free.fr, No problem there.
Created the root floppy from cdrom.img on the cd. I am able to boot the
system based on the instructions in readme.milo. It goes wrong directly
after the root floppy has been loaded into the ramdisk. The message i then
get is:
Warning: unable to open an initial console
Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel
Anyone any clue what the problem might be.
Richard.
p.s. The above configuration works perfectly under both Redhat and SuSe.
