2.1.131 booting problems on AXP

hmmm....
I'm having no luck whatsoever with 2.1.131 on my alpha
(600MHz LX164/512Mb RAM). It compiles happily but when
it comes to booting it gets as far as
'jumping to the kernel.

------------'

and that's it. No more output, nothing on the network, just
locked solid. Thus I can't really give any useful feedback apart
from the fact that i've tried it with different compilers (gcc 2.7.2.3
which never works on the alpha, egcs-1.1b and egcs-1.1.1). A
brief look at the alpha-specific source shows precious little
difference between 131 and 130, which worked fine. Anyone
else found this or had any success?

cheers
john
