I downloaded the netboot daily build from http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/sparc/daily/netboot/boot.img (file change time 04-Sep-2011 00:18) and had no luck for a different reason: loading the image aborts with "a00000 Fast Data Access MMU Miss". I'm not very familiar with these Sun machines yet, but I suspect this means that OpenBoot 3.11 can't load an image larger than 10 MB. -- Andreas Bombe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
