Timeout. "DEC 3300"? As in DEC 3000 Model 300? I.e. one of the old |
2 |
turbochannel bus boxes? |
3 |
|
4 |
If so, Linux is not supported on the turbochannel architecture machines. |
5 |
You could run one of the *BSD variants however. |
6 |
|
7 |
If it is some other "DEC 3300", let us know. |

Original post follows: |

"Hello, |
32 |
|
33 |
I've been trying to install Gentoo on one of my alpha-computers, a DEC |
34 |
3300. But I've been having problmes with the boot-procedure. I've |
35 |
installed the system and compiled a kernel but when I try to boot the |
36 |
kernel I get: |
37 |
|
38 |
aboot>b boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21-alpha.nogz root=/dev/sdc2 |
39 |
aboot: loading uncompressed boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21-alpha.nogz... |
40 |
aboot: segment 0, 3407452 bytes at 0xfffffc0000310000 |
41 |
aboot: zero-filling 291180 bytes at 0xfffffc000064fe5c |
42 |
dboot: starting kernel boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21-alpga.nogz with arguments |
43 |
root=/dev/sdc2 |
44 |
|
45 |
|
46 |
Then the screen flicks black for a second and then I get thrown out to |
47 |
the SRM console again with the following code: |
48 |
|
49 |
halted CPU 0 |
50 |
|
51 |
halt code = 6 |
52 |
double error halt |
53 |
PC = 200000000 |
54 |
boot failure |
55 |
|
56 |
|
57 |
But when I'm booting the kernel from the cd (2.4.19) The kernel boots of |
58 |
nice untill i get a Kernel panic: |
59 |
|
60 |
VFS: Cannot open root device "sdc2" or 08:22 |
61 |
Please append a correct "root=" boot option |
62 |
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:22" |
