No problemo. Btw, I decided to give the sid netinst image (20040616) a try also, now that I got the sarge netinst booting. This was unsuccessful, however, as I end up with: [...] NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0. RAMDISK: Couldn't find valid RAM disk image starting at 0. Freeing initrd memory: 1820k freed Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:00 Press L1-A to return to the boot prom Full bug report at: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=254808 I guess this relates to issues already discussed about a month ago (http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2004/05/msg00139.html). It would be nice if we could get around this, so this behavior won't propagate to the sarge_d-i. Let me know if you think I should drop the cross-posting and do follow-ups to only one of the lists... - -- Frederik Dannemare | mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] GnuPG key: search for 'dannemare' on http://pgpkeys.mit.edu Key fingerprint: BB7B 078A 0DBF 7663 180A F84A 2D25 FAD5 9C4E B5A8 http://frederik.dannemare.net | http://www.linuxworlddomination.dk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFA0hAILSX61ZxOtagRAj+4AJkBY9HRVtAh+pd28ZpJGQsjnthR1QCePPVe GD8t4wvFEouJmr7XmcMIcMg= =d0PS -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
