Bug#244974: installation report: sparc ultra2



Booted image at
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/main/installer-sparc/current/images/sparc64/netboot/

at 4/21/2004 (file says last modified 04/13/2004)

It seemed to get a tiny bit further and  then did this:

Unimplemented SPARC system call: 188
Unimplemented SPARC system call: 188
Unimplemented SPARC system call: 188

Unimplemented SPARC system call: 188
umount /initrd invalid argument
Segmentation Fault

						Segmentation Fault
...presumably ad infinitum
Between each seggy was approximately a 1 second delay.
The screen seemed to flash a bit each time, and the top half of the screen
was interlaced with horrizontal red lines.  I have a photograph here [1].

Tried with http://people.debian.org/~jbailey/d-i/sparc/daily/sparc64/netboot/
with same result.
