Bug#393786: installation-reports: sparc32 failure
Package: installation-reports
Boot method: CD
Image version: 20061017, cdimage.debian.org etch daily sparc netinst
Date: 20061017 20:00 GMT+0300
Machine: Sun SparcStation 5
Processor: 170 MHz TurboSparc
Memory: 256M
Partitions: 1 520M SCA SCSI HDD, known working (2 year old Linux
installation booted fine). 1 SCSI CDROM on the same bus.
Output of lspci and lspci -n:
N/Am this is a SBus machine. It has onboard ESP SCSI and le dma, 2 SBus
CG6 graphics cards are the only non-integrated components.

Comments/Problems:
When I tried with keyboard attached and used framebuffer interface, I
got different ESP SCSI errors both times - dmesg below (yay for
netcat!). I also tried one time with serial console and SCSI worked fine
but I got CD mount errors.
First time with FB, SCSI errored out and no SCSI device was accessible.
This try was not captured since I was not prepared.
The try with serial console did detect both SCSI devices fine but failed
to mount CD. Digging around showed that iso 9660 filesystem was not
available in /proc/filesystems and could not be modprobed either
The second try with framebuffer gave the SCSI error again and this time
I managed to copy dmesg using netcat. This time SCSI HDD errored out but
CD was detected and could not be mounted like before. dmesg of this try:
