Thanks everyone for your help so far. I did have to burn a new CDROM (the
one from the 5.8 set was designed to boot on i386 and not Alpha). Once I
did that, I was able to bring up the system (my dmesg is below).
Some questions:
1. I'm assuming the "preposterous clock chip time" can be managed in the
SRM console so I'll exercise my Google-fu to figure that out.
2. Is the "nvram corrupt" something I need to be concerned about? If so,
what should I do here? Is that a hardware issue or can I re-initialize it
somehow?
3. Anything I should be concerned about with the "stray irq 3" message?
Thanks again!
