  • Thread-topic: Booting Xen/ia64

I've asked for info on this from an HP-internal mailing list.
Today is a US Holiday so I may not get a reply until tomorrow.

I think the problem is that firmware is considering lack
of response from the second CPU to be a boot error.  On my
machine, it is not, but my machine has older firmware.

On my machine, I get a pause for several seconds at this
point and then the boot continues.   It looks like yours
is expecting user input... perhaps if you have a USB
keyboard connected, firmware will accept input from it?
