The AC-0.9 kernels do NOT work on the AS1200/AS4100 platforms.

Apparently, the latest test AC-1.0a kernel DOES; this was reported
earlier when tested via the image here:

ftp://ftp.rdsor.ro/pub/Linux/Distributions/AlphaLinux/core/1.0a/test/ac1-qboot1.iso

REMEMBER, the above ISO is ONLY for testing boot capability on Alpha
platforms, and CANNOT be used for installation.
