Trying to boot a supermicro H8DMT board

Hi, I was given these SMC h8DMT boards to experiment with. (For liquid cooling) Theze are server board that normally go into twin board systems. 2 Opteron 2380 per board. It sort of boots, and gets to:     Beasty loader     then booting the kernel after the spinner    prints the first few lines
