-Known issues with the UP1000 system:
-
-1. Linux boot via floppy disk drive:
- When booting Linux via APB, it takes about 5 minutes for APB to load the kernel image from a floppy device. Booting from a hard disk takes a matter of seconds.
-
-2. 2x AGP card:
- a. At the present time, 2x AGP driver for Linux is not available so 2x mode has not been tested.
- b. The following cards have been used in 1x AGP mode: cards with Permedia-2 controller: Fire
- GL1000, ELSA Synergy, E&S, Matrox Millenium G200 and Stealth 2000.
- c. 3Dfx Rage Pro Turbo card does not work because the option ROM on the AGP card is
- not properly emulated by Alpha BIOS.
-
-3. Linux installation:
- a. To install Linux, please click the "Utilities" menu in the Alpha BIOS setup mode and the
- "Run Maintenance Program". And follow the Linux installation procedure that API provides.
- b. Please do not use the "Install Linux" menu in the "Operating System" menu. \ No newline at end of file
