I'm pleased to report that kernel option 'numa=off' has allowed Hardy to
install and boot. Life is good. I'd be interested in learning exactly
what happened and which kernel options to enable/disable in, say, a make
menuconfig.

Hardy AMD64 Alpha 5 server and desktop won't boot on IBM eServer
Tests:
"acpi=off" -- FAIL -- PANIC: Early Exception rip 805e5131 error 0 cr2

"acpi=ht" -- FAIL -- PANIC: Early Exception rip 805e5131 error 0 cr2

"pci=noacpi" -- FAIL -- PANIC: Early Exception rip 805e5131 error 0 cr2

"acpi=noirq" -- FAIL -- PANIC: Early
I'm also seeing this behavior on another IBM 325. I'm sorry I don't
have any additional technical information to add, but I seriously doubt
this is a case of hardware failure.
