Hello !

I'm looking for a kernel that runs on my AlphaStation 400 4/233.
I've kicked the TGA out of this and use a Mach64 instead now ...

I tried the pc64_bootdisk.srm (BLADE_0.2/BOOT_DISKS) !
It has problems with the PCI-Bios and does not correctly detect the
onboard NCR (detects IRQ 0) ... the rest seems to work ... I was
able to put in the root-disk and had some fun with ls and cat! 8)

I also tried these newer kernels (1.3.2x) provided by David M., but
they crashed during the PCI-Bios detection phase ... but I should
mention that they detected the PCI-Bios kinnda better.

PS: Please help me to kick NT of my box ASAP ;)
