Subject: unclear wording in Sparc docs
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
In
http://www.debian.org/releases/2.1/sparc/ch-install-methods.en.html#s-install-tftp
it is written in section 5.5.3 that :
Often, the file that the TFTP client will look for is
client-ip-in-hexclient-architecture. To compute
client-ip-in-hex, take each byte of the client IP address and translate
it into hexadecimal notation. If you have a
machine handy with the bc program, you can use the program. First issue
the obase=16 command to set the output
to hex, then enter the individual components of the client IP one at a
time. As for client-architecture, try out some
values. SPARC architectures for instance use the sub-architecture names,
such as ``SUN4M'' or ``SUN4C''; in
some cases, the architecture is left blank, so the file the client looks
for is just client-ip-in-hex. Once you've
determined the name, make the link like this: ln /boot/tftpboot.img
/boot/file-name.
This was unclear to me; I didn't know exactly what my filename should
be. I think it would be good if you gave an example. Here's one that
works for me :
I have a sun4c (Sun IPC) architecture, and I want the IP of my Sun to be
192.168.1.3. So the filename will be :
C0A80103.SUN4C
thanks for your time,

boot-floppies (2.2.18) stable; urgency=low
.
* build with Debian 2.2r1 plus updates (closes: Bug#77459)
* Adam Di Carlo:
- i386 and sparc use kernel 2.2.18pre21
(closes: Bug#77425)
- Makefiles: clean is a bit cleaner
- release.sh (i386): also put kernel configs in TOP/<flavor> (hey,
it's a small file); don't leave stranded release/kernel-config file,
put it in the bf-common tarball
- rootdisk.sh: add pcd0 device mknod (closes: Bug#74322), which
MAKEDEV doesn't know about; add gscd and cm206cd devices; remove
some hacks on device creation due to bugs fixed in MAKEDEV
- dbootstrap: quiet bootarg makes more things shut up; disable the
check for root filesystem being on extended partition while LILO is
going on the MBR, because LILO supports this now (closes: Bug#64823);
add new fullscreen_execlog utility function
- debian/control: add Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep
(closes: Bug#70387); remove required package from depends
- documentation: fix links to dselect-beginner (closes: Bug#72870);
add a section in the first chapter talking about where to get Debian
(closes: Bug#71532); other corrections (closes: Bug#70871); fix
linux history link (closes: Bug#76408); enable Polish and Russian
documentation now that newer debiandoc-sgml is in Potato; give
example TFTP file name on SPARC (closes: Bug#40775); mention
problems with booting from IPX (closes: Bug#49172); when reporting
bugs on i386, you must report the flavor
* Josip Rodin:
- documentation: update non-US package numbers
* Eric VanBuggenhaut: French updates
* Marcin Owsiany <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
- Polish updates
- documentation/doc-check script added to help translators stay
up-to-date
- LANGUAGE_CHOOSER integration (closes: Bug#31865) detailed
descriptions follow
.
NOTE: i18n integration is not quite complete, but it is very very
close; it has specifically been kept out of the mainline
version due to some bugs which are expected to be fixed shortly
.
- moved bf-utf from its module to utilities, modified relevant files
accordingly
- Makefile: added conditional build time depends on libpng2-dev
and libpopt-dev
- rootdisk.sh: uses LANGUAGE_CHOOSER for compact and idepci i386 flavors,
in which case it: uses more blocks, adds fb0 ptyp ptyq ptyr ptys
devices, includes a font for bterm, includes a wrapper 'udbootstrap'
and modifies inittab accordingly, includes libutf8_plug.so, bterm,
all messages files, lc-enabled dbootstrap
removed redundand '$' from awk invocations
- utilities/bogl/Makefile: added bterm's font reduction to build process
- utilitise/dbootstrap/Makefile: added rules necessary for creation of
'dbootstrap-lc' - a language-chooser enabled dbootstrap, added configure
runs to generation of libnewt and libslang
- utilities/dbootstrap/po/Makefile: build both normal and utf messages
files by default
- added removal of necessary files to clean rules
* Gleydson Mazioli da Silva: Portuguese updates
