AlphaServer Booting etc

Just to memorize again for reinstalling next year ...

The AlphaServer DS25 RMCs can be invoked via esc-esc-rmc from the serial console. Booting from the network is either

boot eia0 -flags console=ttyS0

or

boot ega0 -flags console=ttyS0

need to update the debian manual as it says only ewa0 is an ethernet ... For the record: lima.lab.rfc822.org had a broken root disk and needs a new install.
