Hello there,
i'm trying to install suse 7.1 ppc on an IBM RS/6000 B50 server.
i tried installing it accordingly to the instructions on the manual but
was faced with serious problems.
after booting from the CD 2 ( CHRP Based computers ) the boot process
freezes at:

ramdisk loaded at 0x1900000, size 753253 bytes
instantiating rtas at 00600000 ... done
copying OF device tree... done
returning 01400000 from prom_init

we have looked all around for help, including Suse's knowledge database,
google and other places with no success.
the server is installed with AIX and functioning perfectly. it does not
look like a hardware problem.

please help, i have never seen anything like it before and it is not
mentioned anywhere.

thank you

-- Alex
