A500 install

[Verbeke Sven]

All,
I tried to install a A500 server with HP-UX 10.20. When I use the boot CD B3920-13941. then he goes always to the ISL prompt, he want boot up.
I did the same with the HP-UX 11 (5012-0053)
and this was working fine. Anyone who knows which CD to use, or what I can do to install the HP-UX 10.20 on that machine?

sorry A500 cant run 32 bids so can't run 10.20. the lowest version hp is 11.00
#cat /var/opt/ignite/local/host.info
MEMORY=524288K
HARDWARE_MODEL="9000/800"
can_run_32bit=FALSE
can_run_64bit=TRUE
is_numa=FALSE
is_ia64=FALSE
is_hppa=TRUE
MODEL="9000/800/A500-44"

Can't you downgrade from a 64bits system to a 32 bits system, so you can run hp-ux 10.20 on a A500?

As fare I known The processors are responseble that only 64 bids unix can run on a A class, If you need to run 10.20 the processors has to be replacet but I doupt that HP sels 32 bids processors for the A class.
If you want to run 10.20 it has to be installed on a K,D, G ore H classsystem.
L, N, V and A class systems can't run 32 bits.

Maybe you can swap your A class whit a K class?
