LinuxTag
Why don't you boot from tape? That's what I did. I was able to get the spinning curser on an s800 by dd'ing the bootstrap_4_bin file to tape and then booting it. I tried putting the kernal image on there too but it doesn't seem to really pass control to it.

Subject: [parisc-linux] LinuxTag
Date: Thu, 17 Jun 1999 11:22:37 +0200HP have invited me to be at their stand for LinuxTag in Kaiserslautern, Germany on the 26th/27th of June. I'd like to be able to demonstrate something, even if it's just the bootloader and a spinning cursor.
I guess what I want is another machine that is attached to the webconsole and a network between them to allow the A180 to netboot. Or does someone have a better idea? (Would these management cards someone mentioned be any use?)

Now I have some more questions:
- What HW do you need exactly? You wrote a A180. This is o.k., but are there other necessaries you need in the A180? And which linux version do you need on this server?
- Could you install the SW on the server?----- End forwarded message -----
