i'm trying to install pa-risc linux on a hp 9000/715/64 box via an internal
cdrom drive.  the kernel boots up but then reports

  "firmware does not allow selection of default wide mode.
   are you trying to boot a 64bit kernel on a pa1.1 box?"

the processor revision is 2.4 (guess that pa1.1 refers to this) and bootrom
is reported to be 1.6 (another guess: means firmware version is 1.6--which
according to hp's site is the most 'recent' revision).  i scanned the
archives but got lost in the myriads of weird tech stuff.  if anyone can
help me with this, that would be cool (otherwise i'd have to install linux
on a crappy old p75).  thanks in advance.
