Both images from the above location go no further than "Hard booted." (afaict that's the PDC message when it hands over control?)

The LIF boot loader line does not show. This was tested on two different machines (J6750, HP 9000/705 "Flounder"), both appear to hang hard and had to be power cycled.

8.0 netinstall images boot OK and load the kernel.

 Any chance you could bisect it? I can provide instructions if required.


 Thanks,

 If nobody else beats me to it (so many projects, so little time..) :)

 I think I can figure out how those images are built, but if you have any
 tricks I'd be interested in hearing them.

 So far I've looked through the mkboot header, the offset and differences
 there look reasonable..

 Finally got around doing another netinstall, can confirm it's fixed now.
 Thanks!
