335	  <http://www.alphalinux.org/>.

337	  The usual way to load Linux on an Alpha machine is to use MILO
338	  (a bootloader that lets you pass command line parameters to the
339	  kernel just like lilo does for the x86 architecture) which can be
340	  loaded either from ARC or can be installed directly as a permanent
341	  firmware replacement from floppy (which requires changing a certain
342	  jumper on the motherboard). If you want to do either of these, say N
343	  here. If MILO doesn't work on your system (true for Jensen
344	  motherboards), you can bypass it altogether and boot Linux directly
345	  from an SRM console; say Y here in order to do that. Note that you
346	  won't be able to boot from an IDE disk using SRM.
