Booting linux on XP1000

[Angelo Zucchetti <agz physik5 uni-rostock de>]

Hi, I'm trying to start linux on a new XP1000.
I downloaded the generic image files from

ftp://gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/Digital/Linux-Alpha/

generic-up-223.img and generic-smp-223.img.

Started the machine and after typing 

boot dva0

the following appears on the screen:

(boot dva0.0.0.0.0 -flags a)
block 0 of dva0.0.0.0.0 is a valid boot block
reading 172 blocks from dva0.0.0.0.0
bootstrap code read in
base = 1ac000, image_start=0, image_bytes=15800
initializing HWRPB at 2000
initializing page table ad 7ff0000
initializing machine state
setting affinity to the primary CPU
jumping to bootstrap code

and here the machine hang :-(.

Have somebody ein idea how can I overcome this problem ?
