RE: Sarge on a Sparc5



Eric, what speed processor is your SS5?

Afaik, the 170MHz SS5 won't run the installer properly because of some
problem with python iirc.

The slower models used a slightly different processor type that will install
fine.

Can't type more now as I have a meeting to goto but that should be a
pointer...
