A bit. HP hasn't done any testing on Nova class boxes.

Some folks are running parisc-linux on E55 (iirc) using NFS root.
FWIW, they are only capable of 32-bit kernels. Forget
trying to install the CD on local disk since we have no drivers
for the HP-PB SCSI interfaces. At www.parisc-linux.org , read the
FAQ answer to "is my HW supported".

Please submit a bug to either kernel or palo project which includes
*all* serial console output. See http://bugs.parisc-linux.org/
for info on how to submit bugs.
