The MD5 checksum of the boot.lif file matches, so that shouldn't be
broken. The machine itself is an HP C240 Visualize (not listed as
supported on the hppa.html page, it has a PA-RISC 8200 processor, not
one from the 7xxx series). I have no idea which the pdc/iodc version
are, the machine is currently at my home and turned off. When I get back
home tomorrow I'll check those.
