I have standalone cpu/auth server, which serves kfs using disk/kfscmd
listen.

I have been trying to boot an AlphaPC 164 from it, but after the
"root is from il [il]: " prompt the kernel dies, giving a message
starting "/kernel/path" before it switches back to the firmware
prompt.

When I do this I also get 'keyfs warnings' in /sys/log/auth.  (I'm
not at the machine right now so I can't give the exact message).

I have also tried this using Charles Forsyth's patch to factotum.

Is this a hardware problem or a trouble authenticating?

I'm not sure because it dies before loading devroot, before trying
to authenticate the user. But then again, there are the keyfs
warnings.

I can successfully connect using the 3e drawterm.
