i all,
Yesterday, I received three _loaded_ 4000-610 boxes. One of them had a
bad power supply. As a test, I installed T64 5.0 on them, and that
works fine.. yay!
Now, just for fun, I decided to move some of the parts of the dead one
into a working one, turning that system into a -620 with dual CPU,
384MB of RAM and the rest of the innards.
T64 installs, and recognizes all hardware. After the reboot, the (new)
kernel goes into an endless loop:

Does anyone know what's going on here? =20
Alternatively, since 5.0 is quite old, does anyone have a copy of 5.1A
available, which, per HP's site, is the last one to support the DEC
4000 series of machine?
Cheers,
Fred
