5.1 Beta 2 Kernel Panic on AlphaServer 2100

[Thomas Laus]

I get a kernel panic while probing devices.  The 
message:

Panic: Going nowhere without my init!
cpuid = 0;
panic
Stopped at debugger +0x38; zapnet v0, #0xf, v0 <v0=0x0>

The Release 5.0 CDROM booted fine.  5.0 could not find 
a suitable disk and would not load anything.  I decided 
to try the 5.1 Beta 2 to see if it would discover a 
hard disk.  The AlphaServer 2100 runs fine on Tru64 and 
was hoping that it would eventually load FreeBSD.  My 
AlphaStation 255 boots and loads the 5.1 Beta 2 just 
fine.
