FW: Right SPARC 2.2.20 floppies on the Debian web site?
HI:
I'm forwarding this message, which I sent to a herbert@debian.org
<mailto:herbert@debian.org> also, but I'm not sure he is still around or
available right now, but I am seriously wondering if the floppy images for
the rescue, root, driver-1, driver-2, etc. disks are all for the same
version. Please read my issues below, in reverse order would make sense.
Thanks.
David Mc

P.P.S. When Linux starts up, at the boot prompt, SILO reports that this
floppy contains the 2.2.18pre21 kernel, which does not match the 2.2.20
the download said it was.
Please help!

Importance: High
P.S. I have re-downloaded the 2.2.20 (potato) floppies from the Debian FTP
site and have found the following situation.
When I boot with the floppies I created from the rescue.bin and root.bin
image file, the install procedure asks for the "driver disk 1", after the
disk partitioning, to install software. When I put in the disk made from
the driver-1.bin image I get:
"This is disk 1 of 2 in the drv14-sun4cdm series of
27-Nov-2000 13:18 EST.
Wrong disk. This is from series drv14-sun4cdm.
You need disk 1 of series the driver series. ".
Where upon it once again asks me to insert "driver disk 1".
Are the right floppy images loaded on the FTP site?
