Hi,
I tried to install sarge with debian-installer beta 3 netinst.iso and
2004-04-02 daily unstable snapshot netinst.iso on UltraSPARC Ultra10,
but kernel was failed to boot up with the failure of root filesystem
mount.
Ultra10 setting:
- default IDE disk (/dev/hda), cdrom (/dev/hdc)
- monitor and default keyboard is connected. No serial console.
Tried image:
- debian-installer beta 3:
http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/sarge_d-i/sparc/beta3/sarge-sparc-netinst.iso
- 2004-04-02 unstable daily snapshot netinsta image:
http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/daily/sparc/20040402/sarge-sparc-netinsta.iso
How to install:
- I downloaded above both images, then wrote to CD-R. Booted up
with "boot cdrom". Then SILO asked "boot:" default message.
I hit only return key. Kernel started to boot up.
Failed problem:
- kernel couldn't understand root filesystem then VFS mount got panic.
- monitor output said:
...kernel boot message...
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 00:00
Press L1-A to return to the boot prom
sunmouse: Successfully adjusted to 1200 baud.
Struggled:
- I inputed the below and so on, in SILO prompt:
boot: linux root=/dev/hdc mount=devfs,dall rw
But VFS couldn't mount root filesystem as same as the above
mentioned with the same message.
I tried to install with woody sparc debian boot image, and it was
completely succeeded. I think this is the current installer problem.
This problem was also reported by Alex Bartok <alex@phpwise.com> (who
has Ultra 60) [1] to debian-sparc@lists.debian.org. Morten Werner
Olsen <werner@skolelinux.no> said he had also same problem with his
SparcStation LX [2]. I sent this report to debian-sparc, and he
suggested me to send this bug report to BTS.
Please fix it or teach me how to fix it if you know something about
it.

Changes:
debian-installer (20040417) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Thiemo Seufer
- Tell clean to remove tree-unpack stamp files.
* Colin Watson
- Sync hfs.map with debian-cd, adding .sit (see #186837).
- Add parted-udeb to powerpc monolithic list.
* Joey Hess
- Access floppy is out of space, so drop all non-English text from
it (any better ideas?).
- For the monolithic target, include all kernel module udebs matching the
kernel from localudebs, and also any non-kernel udebs, automatically, to
make building custom kernels easier
- Add a pkg-lists/kernel_specific, for 2.4 and 2.6, currently
discover varies depending on the kernel major version, and there is a
hack to use module-init-tools over busybox for 2.6.
- Also add a kernel_specific isa-pnp-modules list, since 2.4 has the
module and package, and 2.6 does not.
- Add a new field to pkg-lists to get the kernel major version, and a
KERNELMAJOR variable.
- Add a monolithic_2.6 image type, a hd-media_2.6, and a netboot_2.6,
none currently on by default, that use the 2.6 kernel. So far for i386
only.
- Also added 2.6 versions of the cdrom targets, though the el-torito
one is out of space and disabled.
* Martin Michlmayr
- Add a netboot image for MIPS based Cobalt machines.
- Use 2.4.25 kernels for mips and mipsel.
* Joshua Kwan
- Add all sorts of sparc/sparc64 floppy support, with a net-drivers
disk for sparc64.
- Add cdrom-core-modules dependency for cdrom/sparc.cfg, but only
for sparc64. Hardcode it in because we don't support ${kernel:Version}
in package names that aren't always available on one of the
architectures being built for.
(Closes: #242343, #239136, #239887, #240577)
* Bastian Blank
- Respect EXTRANAME in kernel installation. (closes: #244209)
- Add s390 to build/choose-subarch-env.
- Use make magic to pull that script in.
* Per Olofsson
- Don't do PCMCIA config reduction as it doesn't take enough modules
into account. Closes: #243563.
* Stephen R Marenka
- Fix FTBFS on m68k. Closes: #244209
