Hello, i'm trying to install OpenBSD/Sparc64 on a Blade 100, tried various methods/versions (all described in INSTALL.sparc64), they all fail after 'Trying bsd....' and stall. Where can i have a start point to debug what happens/doesn't happen ?
I've tried : - 3.9-release Cdrom (original version from wim) - 4.1-release cd41.iso taken from mirror/4.1 - 4.1-current cd41.iso taken from snapshots - knowing cd-install are not really good on blades, i tried netbooting bsd.rd 4.1-release and -current, using another obsd box as rarpd/tftpd/rpc.bootparamd/nfsd/mountd server, set like described in diskless(8). The weird thing is that ofwboot.net is taken from tftpd after 'boot net bsd.rd', ran, i see the first twolines : OpenBSD 4.1 (obj) #0: -build-date- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/sparc64/compile/GENERIC then Trying bsd.... and stalled-nothing more on the screen. but i see no mount requests in mountd -d output. i tried following https://www-s.acm.uiuc.edu/wiki/comments/OpenBSD+Sparc64#notes documentation too. security-mode is set to none in OBP, and firmware version is 4.0.45, i don't think it needs a firmware upgrade. Could it be a hardware problem ? How can i get more debug information ? Thanks for any hints. Next step will be trying to use a floppy (gee, i have to find a floppy reader and a disk), or putting the disk in my U10 (which works fine) and try to do the install on it. Landry
