>From <http://mkhppa1.esiee.fr/list.html> it appears that STI console
has not been tested on 735.  Can you try a serial console install?

When you say "all work" do you mean the installer ran and let you
install the system?  At which point did you get "unable to open
initial console"?  During the initial boot from CD, during the
reboot in to the second stage install, or after that, when booting
in to the installed system?
