Hello everyone,
I have a big proplem of installing PA-RISC Linux 0.9.2 on a HP9000 Model
715/100.

I have downloaded the cd-image palinux-0.9.2.iso.gz from
parisc-liux.org, i have decompressed it with gzip on a linux-machine and
burned it with Nero 5.5 on a NT-machine.

When i poweron the hp, i press ESC until i'm in the boot-admin-menu.
Therefrom i boot with
'boot scsi.2.0' (the scsi-id of the cd-rom is 2)
from the cd.

Then a window comes which says
"Attempting to boot."
Then the cd boots. There are lots of different messages.
One warning comes:
"warning: Kernelname doesn't end with 32 or 64"

After that, other messages came on my screen.
The last message is:
"Set default PSW W bit to 0".

Then the the maschine reboots.

I have tried to boot the cd on to different hp9000 model 715/100. The
result is everytime the same.
Bye,
Martin Eisfeld
