Hi there,

just a small suggestion--in your doc on booting a DEC Alpha,
could you put a pointer in there that, if the kernel floppy hangs at
'jumping to bootstrap code', you should make sure your SRM
console is set to graphics (">> set console graphics").  

Took me a small eternity of google searching to find :)

Cheers,

-John
