We have a Compaq AlphaServer ES40 and since 2.6.23 it won't boot. I'm

Looks like your 'aboot' is outdated - see http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/14/259

I think all distros have an updated aboot package now.

Thanks for reporting. I'm not an alpha person, but I have
cc'ed them in case they missed this.

Thanks, I indeed missed that.

Meh, i replied off-list without noticing, sorry about that.

Correct, that was it. Thing is aboot was patched, but the aboot installed on the disk was not.

Thanks :)
