Sun 3/50 question
Gidday - I have an old Sun 3/50 that I have used in the past as an
xterminal to my linux server.
I've recently changed to debian 2.2 (potato) from an ancient install of
slackware 3.0
I have followed all the instructions in linux-xkernel-2.0e and have the
system starting to boot, but it dies on attempting to run init. Heres a
chunk of the 3/50's display:
...

and the whole process repeats endlessly. Heres the relevant info from
my syslog on the debian box.
