Hi! I am attempting to install FreeBSD 4.6 for Alpha on a DEC Multia (UDB) box. I have two multias one a 166 Mhgz and one 233 Mhgz. I have been successful in installing and running NT 4.0 on both so I bekieve the hardware is OK. From the SRM console I boot DKA400 -flags " " -file " " and the boot process begins, I do get a few "soft errors" from the CDROM but it seems to continue. After loading the kernel I get the list of devices then the message about running from the serial console and asks to enter a number from 1-5 choosing a terminal type. At this point keyboard input is shut off. This happens on both multias. How do I get beyond this? I have installed FReeBSD 4.6 on a intel box successfully. I would like to utilize the multias as servers. Thanks Ralph walker380@earthlink.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
