Hello, I cannot run any 2.2 kernel on AS 1000A - noritake. I can see, that kernel starts booting, but after while (I cannot see where) it switch back to "blue screen" and: halted CPU0 halt code = 6 double halt error PC=fffffc0000319f80
At this moment, I'm running on 2.0.35 from: ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/linux/alphalinux/Linux-Alpha/Kernels/alpha-sources-2.0.35-0.1.tar.gz but I have to boot mikasa kernel first, only after booting this kernel I can boot noritake kernel ...
