There are no boot floppies for the Ultra machines. The Ultra support
is still being worked on, it is possible to get it running on an Ultra
but you have to use a tftpboot image and base.tgz from my web site
_and_ you have to install the kernel and modutils by hand. (e.g. its
currently for very experienced Debian hackers only.)
I'm working on an easier to use install for Ultra machines, I should
be done within a few weeks. (I have to update two packages: binutils
and modutils, tweak the install program, and make a package for the X
servers.)
