If so how? AS2100a is about the least well tested Alpha as far as FreeBSD is concerned. Andrew (gallatin@) does not even want to be reminded of the work he did to get 2100 and 2100a supported. It also made a difference if you had a EV4 or a EV5 CPU installed. At some time in the dim past it sort-of worked but that was really it. I'm afraid you are basically on your own trying to get it working. Noone in the committer community that I know of still has a machine like this available. The ones we had at work and which I used in the dim dark past to test my release builds on have long ago been scrapped. Sorry ... Wilko -- Wilko Bulte wilko@FreeBSD.org
