If you choose to boot from ARC console firmware using MILO, you will also need to prepare a disk containing MILO and LINLOAD.EXE from the provided disk images. See for more information on Alpha firmware and boot loaders. The floppy images can be found in the MILO directory as milo_subarchitecture.bin. Unfortunately, these MILO images could not be tested and might not work for all subarchitectures. If you find it doesn't work for you, try copying the appropriate MILO binary onto the floppy (). Note that those MILOs don't support ext2 ``sparse superblocks'', so you can't use them to load kernels from newly generated ext2 file systems. As a workaround, you can put your kernel onto the FAT partition next to the MILO. MILO binaries are platform-specific. See to determine the appropriate MILO image for your Alpha platform.
