Thanks for being the 1st person to report results for 3.2G !
The log indicates that there is a problem reading/understanding the format of the CD (rz4). This is possibly a function of the version of FreeAXP that you are running. What version did you test with, and on what Windows platform ?
FreeAXP boots fine from CD for V3.2C and V4.0D, so we would expect V3.2G to work as well, but, alas, we've not been able to test V3.2G yet since we've been unable to locate a V3.2G kit to test with.
Also, as with V3.2C through V4.0D, you will need to set pka0_disconnect to 0. The release notes at their next revision will state :
"Tru64 UNIX versions from V3.2x up to and including V4.0D require the setting of pka0_disconnect to 0. On systems with dual SCSI HBAs there will be a pka0 and a pkb0 (Avanti and Avanti Flex), ensure both have disconnect set to 0.
eg.
>>> show pka*
pka0_disconnect 1
....
>>> set pka0_disconnect 0
>>> init"
Try the pka0 setting, and see if that helps the CD.
Also, if the physical CD doesn't co-operate, booting from an image copy of the V3.2G CD -may- work better.
