Hi, it is the first time I'm trying to install Linux on HP9000 rp3410 machine. I'm booting off Debian 5.0.3 CD, PALO selects 64bit kernel, later on the kernel detects ttyS0 but the console output stops at: PDC Stable Storage facility v0.30 STI GSC/PCI core graphics driver Version 0.9a Generic RTC Driver v1.07 Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled 0000:e0:01.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xfffffffff4051000 (irq = 74) is a 16550A console handover: boot [ttyB0] -> real [ttyS0] <that's it> I tried to pass serial=ttyS0 to the kernel but then the output stops a wee while later as well: STI GSC/PCI core graphics driver Version 0.9a Generic RTC Driver v1.07 Serial: 8250/16550 driver $Revision: 1.90 $ 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled 0000:e0:01.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0xfffffffff4051000 (irq = 74) is a 16550A 0000:e0:01.1: ttyS1 at MMIO 0xfffffffff4050000 (irq = 74) is a 16550A 0000:e0:01.1: ttyS2 at MMIO 0xfffffffff4050010 (irq = 74) is a 16550A 0000:e0:01.1: ttyS3 at MMIO 0xfffffffff4050038 (irq = 74) is a 16550A brd: module loaded mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice TCP cubic registered NET: Registered protocol family 17 turn off boot console ttyB0 <that's it> I'm connected over serial to MP and using COnsole from there. What am I doing wrong / how to make it work? Thanks!
