An update:
I replaced the problematic disk in the ES10 and now when I try to boot
from the Tru64 CD, the system attempts to bootstrap, then I am presented
with a message "Interupt not expected" then the system seems to do a
memory dump. It then resets itself, and continuously cycles through the
boot process, failing each time with "Interupt not expected"
Any ideas?
