Package: installation-reports Version: beta 3 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
I tried the beta 3 CD on my alpha, it doesn't boot. Here is what happens from the SRM console, the command I used was "boot dqb" (boot dqb1.1.1.208.0 -flags 0) block 0 of dqb1.1.1.208.0 is a valid boot block reading 171 blocks from dqb1.1.1.208.0 bootstrap code read in vase = 200000, image_start = 0, image_bytes = 15600 initializing HWRPB at 2000 initializing page table at ffee000 initializing machine state setting affinity to the primary CPU jumping to bootstrap code aboot: Linux/Alpha SRM bootloaded version 0.9b aboot: switching to OSF/1 PALcode version 1.23 aboot: booting from device 'IDE 0 208 1 1 1 0 0' cb_open: failed IDE 0 208 1 1 1 0 0, dqb1.1.1.208.0 aboot: unable to open boot device 'IDE 0 208 1 1 1 0 0': c000000000000000 aboot: kernel load failed (-1) halted CPU 0 halt code = 5 HALT instruction executed PC = 2000005c boot failure >>> >>> show device dqa0.0.0.108.0 DQA0 IBM-DTLA -307030 TX4OA50C dqb1.1.1.208.0 DQB1 ATAPI CD -ROM DRIVE 50X M G5CL dva0.0.0.0.0 DVA0 CPU info: cpu : Alpha cpu model : PCA56 cpu variation : 7 cpu revision : 0 cpu serial number : system type : EB164 system variation : SX164 system revision : 0 system serial number : cycle frequency [Hz] : 533333333 timer frequency [Hz] : 1024.00 page size [bytes] : 8192 phys. address bits : 40 max. addr. space # : 127 BogoMIPS : 1059.80 kernel unaligned acc : 0 (pc=0,va=0) user unaligned acc : 1276 (pc=120003be0,va=120018e44) platform string : Digital AlphaPC 164SX 533 MHz cpus detected : 1 lspci info 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: Cirrus Logic GD 5434-8 [Alpine] (rev fc) 00:07.0 Ethernet controller: 3Com Corporation 3c905C-TX/TX-M [Tornado] (rev 74) 00:08.0 ISA bridge: Contaq Microsystems 82c693 00:08.1 IDE interface: Contaq Microsystems 82c693 00:08.2 IDE interface: Contaq Microsystems 82c693 00:08.3 USB Controller: Contaq Microsystems 82c693 00:09.0 Multimedia audio controller: Ensoniq ES1370 [AudioPCI] -- System Information: Debian Release: 2.2 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: alpha Kernel: Linux 2.4.24 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
