Comments/Problems: when I tried to do the hard drive, using the manual
partition option, I got i386 type partitions (primary and logical
partitions). I accepted the partitioning and was told that SILO
wouldn't load. It was right.
I rebooted the CD and reinstalled. This time I used the automatic
partition option and changed the partition table and it worked. The
second drive showed i386 type partitions again. But, by using these
partitions, the machine booted and I finished the installation.
I installed Etch about 6 months ago, when it was testing, and I don't
remember having this partitioning problem.
I don't know what the <access denied> means on the sound card.
Probably it won't work.
All-in-all, I think it was an interesting experience. I don't think
the Sparc64 install is for people who aren't familiar with the Sun
OpenBoot and paritioning system. I personally find it very interesting
and challenging ... as long as I have internet access.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
