HP C8000 with HP-UX 10.20

Hi all,

I know that this will sound like from stone age but I am still using couple B180L and B2600 boxes running with HP-UX 10.20 Ace5.

Recently I got perfect condition HP C8000 workstation and just wondering if I can run it with 10.20?

All specs saying min requirements are 11i, however I am sure I've seen post somewhere before that it is possible to build 10.20 on this machine. Maybe I was dreaming?

Tried to cold install 10.20 and got the following results:

Booting...
HARD Booted.
ISL Revision A.00.38 OCT 26, 1994 (oh god, that's old...)
ISL booting hpux (;0):INSTALL

Then after couple seconds screens refreshed with the following message:
ISL> S/N 113-99006-103 BIOS

and just got ISL console. Unfortunately, I am not experienced enough to benefit from ISL console...

Is it a sign that workstation is not compatible or there is a way which I am not aware of to install 10.20 on C8000?

Any comments appreciated.

Thank you.

EBOARD-ADDTHEME(1)					      General Commands Manual						EBOARD-ADDTHEME(1)

NAME

       eboard-addtheme - a program to easily install new eboard board and sound themes.

SYNOPSIS

       eboard-addtheme P graphics-file description

       eboard-addtheme S sound-file

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page briefly documents the eboard-addtheme command.	This manual page was contributed by the developers of the Debian GNU/Linux
       distribution.

       eboard-addtheme installs the given theme for eboard.  If it has sufficient permissions, it will install the  theme  in  the  system  themes
       directory; otherwise, it will install it in ~/.eboard.

       eboard-addtheme's  behavior  depends on its first argument.  If this argument is P, a graphics file in the proper format should be provided
       as the second argument, and the third argument should be a description of the theme.   The  graphics  file  will  be  installed	as  a  new
       piece/board  set.   If, on the other hand, this argument is S, a sound file should be provided as the second argument; it will be installed
       as a new sound theme.

       eboard must be restarted after a new theme has been added to notice the addition. Graphics become available in  the  Settings  |  Bitmapped
       Piece Sets submenus, sound files become available in the Sound Event configuration dialog boxes.
