RE: AlphaStation 600?

[Stephen Weiss <STEPHEN ESC IE Lehigh EDU>]

I run one - I guess it's okay....  I've had some annoying problems with
it.  I found only one milo image that worked (just forget about the SRM
console!)...  and it doesn't work with the video card, so you have to
type blind until you can get it to autoboot (which isn't too hard).
You'll need the new 24-Plane TGA X Server...  I used redhat 5.1 and it
worked just fine... YMMV.  If you need any help (or if you get the SRM
console working), I'm here.
