Hi All;
I'm having a minoor hassle installing NetBSD 1.6 and I was wondering if there is anyone "out there" who can maybe help me.
I have an Alpha DEC 2100A and I'm trying to install NetBSD 1.6 on it.
I get into the SRM and type:
>>boot dka500 (CD ROM drive)
THe machine then runs and panics with the following:
panic vga_common_setup couldn't map memory
stopped @ 0xffffc0000562a64 ret zero,(ra)
I tried removiong the memory card and placing another one in, but I get the same error message.
I am using 2 128Mg cards from DEC with 2 LSI LIA9277 chips as well as many small HM5116400A56 chips.
Anyone wih any ideas/ solutions, suggestions.... I would be more than greatly appreciative.
Thanks a million to all in advance.
Sincerely;
Uriel Ash
