ok i got a hack that you can try it out please i don't even know if this
works or not
do this:
make a ftp connection and udmp the rpm files of your intel box to alpha ...
of course some alpha specific packages (AFAIK this is only milo) need to be
reinstalled if yuouw ant the db to pickup and some you will have to fix e.g.
you don't have lilo on your system. (maybe rpm --rebuilddb ??)
