[parisc-linux] More Install on C110: Kernel doesn't load...

[Daniel Williams]

The ISO image burned is 137,854,976 bytes in length...  at some point 
here I'll cat /dev/cdrom > /dev/null to check the media and make sure 
there's not a problem, but I'd be inclined to think its something with 
the format on CD...  Here's the file I fed into my port of palo:

-c0/vmlinux root=/dev/ram initrd=0/ramdisk
-k/Volumes/palinux-0.9.1/debian/dists/sid/main/disks-
hppa/current/32/vmlinux
-b/Volumes/palinux-0.9.1/iplboot
-r/Volumes/palinux-0.9.1/debian/dists/sid/main/disks-
hppa/current/root.bin
-C./palinux-0.9.2.iso

When mounted, the 0.9.2 ISO's name is palinux-0.9.1, because it was 
mastered like that?  Anyway, I assume the kernels on the ISO image are 
OK to use?  I can't of course compile them myself because I don't have 
an hppa cross compiler (no x86 box).
