Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
The 2.4/2.6 netboot ("boot.img") images do not work on the Sun Fire
V100. This is caused by the network driver ("dmfe") repeatedly
giving the following errors:
SABRE0: PCI SERR signal asserted.
SABRE0: PCI bus error, PCI_STATUS[caa0]
eth1: Tx timeout - resetting
The "tulip" driver works fine on this system (installed from CD on
another identical machine), but is not included in the netboot
image. Including this driver would solve the problem.
