Bug#244133: SPARC Classic installation SUCCESS!
Package: installation-reports
Debian-installer-version: netinst ISO date: 09-APR-04 from
http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/sarge_d-i/sparc/current/sarge-sparc-netinst.iso
modified so the silo.conf contains the right boot parameters
Method: boot from cdrom, starting normal priority,
later switched to expert mode
Machine: SPARC Classic (sun4m)
Processor:
Memory: 16 MB
This time, I did the partitioning manually and also deleted
lots of stuff (reiserfs, xfs, partman and more) from the
ram disk.
Only fault: empty fstab in /target/etc. Presumably I have
deleted a little too much ;-) But I realized and fixed this
before reboot, so the installation continued after reboot.
So now I got a Sparc Classic running sarge :-)
Actually, it is not running but crawling!
Cheers
Herbert
