Hello!

Sorry for bothering you, but I haven't found solution of my problem yet
:-(


I've tried to install NetBSD 1.4.1 on AlphaServer 1000 4/266
with DECchip 21064A-6

After command :
>>> boot dva0

and the second diskette was loaded this text appeared on the screen:

panic: pci_display_console: no device at 0/0/0

I decided that installation procedure is needed in PCI video-card, so I
disabled EISA video on motherboard and installed S3 PCI video.
All looks the same :-(

Help me, please, server still isn't working.
If im wrong and I need send this question to another list, tell me,
please. I'm new in NetBSD.

I know that Redhat Linux works on my platform but I don't like them,
but I really didn't like OSF/1 which worked on it before. My favorite OS
is FreeBSD but it doesn't support AlphaServer at the moment :-(
Help, please!

Kind regards,
Vadim V. Chepkov
