Booting palinux on model 735 problems.
Sorry for double message.
Hello All.
I have problem.
We have here two HP Apollo 9000 Series 700 Model 735 boxes (both
identical). I tried to boot
palinux-0.5.iso on one of them. Because boxes have no cdrom I did it through network using
rbootd (slightly modified to accept empty target names) giving it whole cdrom device as target.
It started ok, listed all devices available on board and passed to (all strings are copied from
screen)
ASP version 20 at f0800000 found.
Then it waits a bit and writes at screen
Running stack from ...
and dumps a lot of data. Then it ends with
High Priority Machine Check (HPMC): Code=1 regs=c026d080
(Addr=00000000)

and nothing more happens.
I saw in this list, that some people managed to boot linux on "model 735".
Did I miss something ? Can anybody share kernel for 735 ?

[parisc-linux] More C100 questions
Hello again,
Well, I bought the C100 and I have a couple of more questions. Er, they're not Linux-specific yet, but I'll get there.
1) Display. I'd asked earlier (this list and the vendor) if I could drive an off-the-shelf PC monitor. Everybody liked my chances, the connector on the back of the C100 looks like an [S]VGA connector, but it doesn't seem to drive my fairly studly 17" HP monitor. The C100's PROM says this about the display adaptor:
MONITOR INFORMATION
Slot # HPA State Resolution Frequency Class --------- ---------- ------- ---------- --------- --------- graphics0 f8000000 Empty graphics3 f4000000 Empty graphics4 f6000000 Present 1280x1024 75Hz VESA graphics1 fa000000 Empty
Current Console Path: core.SERIAL_1.9600.8.none
Stable Store Console Path: GRAPHICS3
The serial console is working fine. Any suggestions as to the if/how I can drive a PC monitor with this thing? Is that 'Stable Store Console Path' wrong?
2) SCSI. It came with a two-user version of HP/UX installed on a 2 gig wide SCSI drive BUT NO MEDIA. So for the time being I plan to keep HP/UX on this drive. Apparently there's about 250 megs that aren't allocated. Can Linux use an HP/UX partition? The box has two SCSI connectors on the back. One is called a 'single-ended SCSI bus'. If I had the right cable, could I run an older SCSI drive? I've got a 500 meg drive waiting for something useful to do.
Kind regards,
- Greg

This should be in the FAQ: "Hit Tab key on power up. Keyboard and Display must connected to respective ports. Firmware will cycle through known display types. Hit return to select one". This is probably described in any of the workstation ownwers guides at
http://docs.hp.com/hpux/hw/index.html
I'm not sure where the FAQ lives these days.
Alex, can you add this?

Can't tell. Need to know what slot your interface card is installed in. Use "in io" on newer workstations/servers or "info" (?) on older ones to find out what's installed and the PDC understands.
How to check is worth mentioning the "How do I hook up a Display" FAQ.

No. Only full disk supported until some one writes the LVM support and also adds it to our boot loader, palo.

RE: [parisc-linux] More C100 questions
Other thing to note when attaching a monitor to an workstation is that some (old at least the 715/50) workstations have the sync-signal on green, and no signal(s) on the h-sync and v-sync, which will make newer monitors go into power-save state...

it hasn't moved, you can add it yourself and it will be on the website up to an hour later. linuxcare still haven't responded to my offer of having it do `pull' updates on demand which would reduce the lag to typically ~30 seconds between cvs comit and it appearing on the website.
