hi folks, i had no luck in booting usparcII systems (e250,e450,small sparc station) with the provided boot.img. the kernel quits booting with the message:
the bootimage is: http://ftp.at.debian.org/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-sparc/current/images/sparc64/netboot/boot.img here is some snipplets from the cosnole output: Warning: unable to open an initial console. Unimplemented SPARC system call 188 Unimplemented SPARC system call 188 Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! Press L1-A to return to the boot prom well. the woody netboot just works fine...upgrading to sarge leads to a halfusable system when rebooted (root fs ro mounted, some daemons not starting) but thats all easy to fix. so thats the (icky) way i install sarge on sparcs now. what do i have to change on the boot.img to get sarge up and running from the start ? thanks for any hints gerald -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
