I just downloaded and attempted to boot the NetBSD 1.5.1 cd iso
from ftp.netbsd.org:/pub/NetBSD/iso/1.5.1/alphacd.iso.

On the following machine:
        AlphaServer 1000 4/233, 128mb
        stock on-board vga

it fails at kernel startup as follows:

Boot flags: 0,0
open netbsd: No such file or directory
open netbsd.gz: No such file or directory
open netbsd.bak: No such file or directory
open netbsd.bak.gz: No such file or directory
open netbsd.old: No such file or directory
open netbsd.old.gz: No such file or directory
open onetbsd: No such file or directory
open onetbsd.gz: No such file or directory
7780888+250088=0x7a8e58

Entering netbsd.alpha at 0xfffffc00003010c0...
panic: pci_display_console: no device at 0/0/0
Stopped at      0xfffffc000053ede4:     ret     zero,(ra)

Is there something amiss about my machine or is this indeed
a bad kernel built on the iso image?

(FWIW, my machine runs FreeBSD 4.3 and NetBSD 1.5 fine).

Thanks and regards,
