Re: Fun upgrading libc (segmentation fault while going from stable to testing in Sun IPX)

I got pissed and decided to reinstall debian in that IPX. I make a
testing (I assume the order is stable->testing->unstable, right? I still get
confused in that) boot cd using jigdo. When I tried to feed my IPX with it,
it would hang during the boot process. So, I made a 3.00r4 stable/woody boot
cd and was able to install debian. So, I then started looking for a new
kernel, just to see if I could go to 2.4 in woody. It seems the only
available images are for the ultra series. Lovely.
Hi Mauricio,
If I remember correctly, IPX is sun4c architecture. Sarge (testing)
installer formally supports it, but I haven't seen any reports from
somebody trying to install on sun4c for a long time. So, if you would be
willing to try the latest pre-release image(s) from [0] and submit a
detailed installation report [1] afterwards, that would be very valuable.
