Re: Ultra2 Booting problem
Walt,
I had the same problem a few days ago. There are erros at your
silo.conf.
First, you must know where are your vmlinuz files. Here the full
path is:
2/boot/vmlinuz
At silo, do:
boot 2/boot/vmlinuz
It should work.
My silo.conf looks like:
partition=2
root=/dev/sda2
timeout=10
read-only
default=linux
image=/vmlinuz
label=linux
root=/dev/sda2
# initrd=/initrd.img
image=/vmlinuz-2.4
label=linuxOK
root=/dev/sda2
image=/vmlinuz-2.6-smp
label=linux-2.6-smp
root=/dev/sda2
# initrd=/initrd.old
image=/vmlinuz-2.6-1proc
label=linux-2.6-1proc
root=/dev/sda2
The trick is to configure root= in each image.
It works for me.
Hope it helps.
Best Regards,
Emir

Ultra2 Booting problem
Greetings all
Before I attempted to load Sarge I started out
with a system that was booting woody. I now
have a system that will not boot anything. I tried
to re-load woody back onto my system and
forget about Sarge thinking that it wasn't ready
yet only to get the following message:
Rebooting with command: boot
Boot device: disk3 File and args:
The File just loaded does not appear to be executable.
Boot device: disk3 File and args:
The File just loaded does not appear to be executable.
{0} ok
It would seem that a system setting got changes
somewhere. I now find myself regreeting messing
with Sarge.
The problem started after I downloaded the buisnesscard
iso upon someones recommendation only to find that it
wanted to load off the internet, which is not a workable
thing because there is no internet connection to the machine.
I then downloaded the recent full install disk 1(dated 23 Nov 2004)
off of the web and tried to load with it. Now this.
I'm sure there is a way to get the machine to where it will boot
again. (It pays not to panic.) Its just figuring out how.
To try and take to someone to get fixed . . . . well it would
be cheaper to get another machine off eBay and sell this
one off in parts.
Is there anyone that can help out with this? There is a lot
to learn about a Sparc station and Im not there yet.
