I recently started to resurrect my old Alpha (Digital PWS 600au). It
was spewing a garbled mess on serial console, so I had to find a PCI
video card to install in it first. Then a PS/2 keyboard. Then it
turned out to have reverted to the PWS 600a (AlphaBIOS, supposed to
run Windows NT). This was due to a dead battery (no wonder, the
machine was in my storage for ~13 years). However, with the battery
replaced, it booted fine into the OpenBSD 3.7 install that was still
on there.
compliments! I must admit the coolness factor!
I'm envious you can OpenBSD your alpha, while I am always been a SPARC
(32) fan and now I have many machines but the only current OS is
NetBSD!
I hope it will prove stable!
