Hello.

I have an HP Apollo 735/99 workstation with 112MB RAM and a 2GB HD.  The 
external SCSI CDROM is a bit old, but it's Sony from Sun.  I burned the 
32-bit graphical iso this afternoon and it booted into the 2.4.0-pa10 
kernel.   After it's done searching for devices (it finds 13 of them), it 
prints out:

--snip
CPU(s): 1 x PA7100 (PCX-T) at 99.000000 MHz
Kernel command line: HOME=/ TERM=linux root=/dev/ram console=tty0 sti=0 
sti_font=VGA8x16
Console: colour dummy device 80x25
snip--

and then hangs.  Could this be a bad iso image? Or is this a known issue? 
Any help would be greatly appreciated (as is all the effort already done by 
the developers of the parisc port).

Thanks-

Mike Werneke
