With any SRM -- 5.5, 5.7, 5.8 -- Tru64 5.1 will not boot off of CD for
installation on the Alpha Server 1200.

Is there an issue with the firmware and the 1200 or 5.1 and the
1200? Tru64 4.0D was not an issue and we are doing fresh installs rather
than incremental upgrades.

Point install from CD terminates:

"ISP0: firmware revision 5.8 loaded by console
cp - save_term routine to be called
cp - save_term exited with hlt_req = 1, r0=00000000.00000000
halted cpu 0
halt code = 5
halt instruction executed
pc = ffffffff0026e980"

We are testing the install on a spare 2Gb drive (all other drives
removed). Testing 4.0D on this spare drive -- CD booted without a
problem.

Thanks in advance.
