I have a a400 model HPUX and I would like to re-install 11.00. When it install completed, it cannot boot up and show the following error.

Trying boot path

hi simon,
Are you sure you are booting from the same
disk on which the O.S. is installed ?
If yes then i will suggest to re-install the O.S. & select 64bit instead 32bit this time.
Hope you are doing a advance installation where you have an option to select this.

An A400 only supports a 64-bit kernel. It sounds as if you somehow managed to load 32-bit HP-UX on this machine, which will definintely not work.

You need to start from scratch and make sure that the 64-bit HP-UX is selected when you do the install.

Hi,

Have a look at the link the following

http://devrsrc1.external.hp.com/STK/serversupport.html


As you see, A400 is supported 64BIT (ONLY)

re-install 11.0/64bit with correct Media.
