I'm still recomending asking on the debian-sparc list, since I never have tried linux on a sparc myself. (I've got a sparcstation LX (sun4m) and sparcstation 2 (sun4c) that I'll play with if I find the time.) The following was sent there: (There are also sucess reports) From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Rob Radez) Subject: sparc32 2.4.21-pre5 kernel debs To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Sun, 2 Mar 2003 19:45:54 GMT I'm currently uploading 2.4.21-pre5 kernel debs for sparc32, UP and SMP, to http://osinvestor.com/sparc/debs/ that will hopefully boot this time on SMP. If they're still too big I'll try to modularize more stuff, in which case more people will likely need an initrd. pre5 UP boots fine here, with a patch that I mailed off to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I make no promises on machines out of my control though.
