I'm just bumbling along with all this ATM.  So I'm basically relying 
the the goodwill and good work done by those on the list.

Suffice to say that I have the HP box booting up linux now, just 
required I change my network setup to look more like the one 
expected (configured) in the lifimage.. much less of an issue for me 
than working out how to configure hte lifimage.

Anyway to add to my tale of woe, I grabbed the serial lifimage from 
pehc, and with that I configured the HP box to use the esrial port 
for my console.. much to my dismay I have now found that the 
cable I have doesn't fit all the way into the serial port on the hp 
box.. so I can't see ANY thing.. so until I get a serial cable that fits 
fully into the port.. I'm stuck... :-/

Thanks to grant, willy and a few others in irc the other night too... 
I'm grateful for you guys answering dumb questions when there are 
other more important things to sort out.  :)


Pete.
