I have this exact problem--with the added fact that my SCSI device
does not seem to be supported by the current netboot image. I would be
willing to help solve these problems if I could get my Sparc IPX working
either way. I could try to set up cross-compilation from my i586 system,
but I assume that would be more trouble then it is worth...
Anyone have any ideas when either of the two problems are going to be
fixed?
