Hello Managers,
I am attempting to boot the operating system CD on our AlphaServer DS20
with firmware v6.5, and it doesn't seem to work. I have verified that
other machines can boot the CD but this particular machine cannot do so. I
would prefer the 5.1a disk to work over the other two versions, but that
gets even less far than older CDs.
When I use the Tru64 5.1a disk I get the following output
P00>>>boot dka500
(boot dka500.5.8.1 -flags A)
retries to pka0.5.0.8.1 exhausted(cmd-0 sts-2)
failed to open dka500.5.0.8.1
P00>>>
When I try to use the Tru64 5.0 and the Tru64 4.0f disk, I get the
following output:
P00>>>boot dka500
(boot dka500.5.8.1 -flags A)
block 0 of dka500.5.0.8.1 is a valid boot block
reading 14 blocks from dka500.5.0.8.1
bootstrap code read in
base = 200000, image_start = 0, image_bytes = 1c00(7168)
initializing HWRPB at 2000
initializing page table at 3ff44000
initializing machine state
setting affinity to the primary CPU
jumping to bootstrap code
can't open osf_boot
halted CPU 0
halt code = 5
HALT instruction executed
PC = 20000030
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
Kevin Dea
