Booted the originally installed Alpha 5 in recovery mode. Comes up fine in root shell prompt.
sudo apt-get install update which downloaded & installed a bunch. No help, normal boot still hangs.
sudo apt-get install upgrade which downloaded & installed a bunch. No help, normal boot still hangs.
This is now kernel 2.6.27-4 after the upgrade. Still fails same way.
Did "Fix Broken Packages" which downloaded and installed a bunch. No help, normal boot still hangs.
All this updating took quite a few minutes with many megabytes downloaded and installed.
Boots fine to root shell prompt. Startx starts X windows fine, then when Gnome tries to load the background everything hangs up tight.
