Hi,
I am the original poster for this thread.
Yes I know, but up to the point, where I asked Gregor to provide more
details about the problems he experienced, you didn't report a problem
at all. Or am I missing something?
I tried installing the
NETINST.iso and also had a problem. The U10 has an HP DVD drive in it.
The install CD seemed to load ok and the installer started. When it got
to the detecting hardware function it decided that no cdrom drive was
installed and would not proceed. I am going to install the original Sun
cdrom drive and try again when I have time.
In addition to the information Adrian asked for, it could be interesting
to know, to which IDE channel your CDROM drive is attached and how it is
configured (Master, Slave, Cable select).
The CDROM drive in my Ultra 10 is attached to IDE channel #2 (the IDE
port farer away from the CPU) and configured as Master device.
And I just now tested with the ISO in question (from 20180516-18:22) and
didn't recognize an issue. Sure, hardware detection takes long on the
Ultra 10, but it eventually succeeds and the CDROM drive is correctly
detected.
Cheers,
Frank
