Re: Installing linux on axp150

Holger, please let me know how the rest of your install goes.  I have been
able to get all the way to the RedHat installation, but the system always
hangs just after the "root password" entry screen.  I have no idea why and
have, as of yet, not found any way to get around it.

Good luck,
