Bug#319788: installation-reports: [sparc][netinst] attempt to access beyond end of device
Package: installation-reports
Severity: normal
I have a Sun Blade 100 system here which needs a new debian installation
so I netbooted boot.img from
http://people.debian.org/~stappers/d-i/images/2005-07-24/sparc64/netboot/2.6/
helios@psychotic:~/vuilbak$ md5sum boot.img
f1f17134da1b079edbfc496c2c4133c3 boot.img
When I boot net'ed the machine it starts loading the kernel but it fails
when mounting the ramdisk filesystem:
RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
RAMDISK: incomplete write (-28 != 32768) 8388608
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
attempt to access beyond end of device
ram0: rw=0, want=16452, limit=16384
These last two lines are repeated 14 times. I downloaded the boot.img
again to verify (but both md5 checksums were identical).
After that I tried
http://people.debian.org/~stappers/d-i/images/2005-07-24/sparc64/netboot/boot.img
helios@psychotic:~/vuilbak$ md5sum boot-2.img
7681990dffacdc3e4877daba4fa4270c boot-2.img
Which results in a similar error but now the screen gets flooded with
these errors.
