Folks,

I'm trying to install 5.0 release on an old HP Netserver LF.  I need to get into the kernel UserConfig.  With 4.7, this involved issuing a "boot -c" command before loading the kernel.  With 5.0, though, it just loads the entire kernel and never gets to a command prompt.  Has anyone else encountered this?  Is it a possible bug, or has the syntax possibly changed and not been updated on:

thanks in advance,
Brian
