Well all efforts have failed. I now tried to use an internal drive in the B2000 totally bypassing the card and the array with the same results. It still won't load PALO. The whole install goes well, but no PALO. Is there a newer version of PALO that isn't on the 2.4.20-32 release that I could try?

Basically my B2000 with the A4977A PCI EG graphics card starts up and allows me to load all the way until making the system bootable. Then I get an error saying PALO won't load and then dumps me all the way back to the "choose a language" screen. It's so weird because the card and the disks hanging off of the card are out of my C360 and functioned great with it. I think I will blow away the the LUN in the array that I'm using, format it and try again starting with the disk partitioning. It does seem to want to use the EG graphics card though. As a side note, I think it's cool that the front LCD screen tells me I'm running Linux and the current kernel revision. Any ideas?

perhaps you should read the section related to b2600 on this page:
http://pateam.esiee.fr/list.html
the mailing-list archive:
http://www.fr.parisc-linux.org/mailing-lists/
eventually the FAQ (there's an entry about USB keyboards)
http://www.fr.paris c-linux.org/faq/
and the Boot HOWTO
http://pateam.esiee.fr/doc.html
everything is explained there.
you need one of the latest netinst isos to install your box:
