[parisc-linux] cd-rom

[Ulrich Strelow]

Although I used HP-UX 9.x some years ago, I don't know
what your mounting problem is. But anyway, in order to
install HP-UX 10.20 you NEED to BOOT from the CD.

So please try to boot from the CD (e.g. press ESC
during the boot sequence, search for bootable devices
and select your CD hardware path 2.0.1.4.0). If you
get any errors from this procedure, please post the
error message(s) and the output from the search
command.
