Hello,

I  was able to install FreeBSD 4.3 -20010822- STABLE on an Alpha 5305 ,
but I am not able to boot the OS.

I tried:

set boot_osflags a
set bootdef_dev dkb0
set auto_action BOOT

I get the following error:

(boot dkb0.0.0.2000.0 -flags a)
block 0 of dkb0.0.0.2000 is not a valid boot block
bootstrap failure

Thanks,

Diego
