Hello Steve,
I got your 2.2.8 kernel images. I will try to package another bootdisks set
next week based on them.
I already downloaded kernel-image-2.2.7*_cvs.19990507_sparc.deb last week.
Are you updated them without changing their name ?
btw, there is a 2.2.7 kernel image in the parent directory but I can't access
to it: too restrictive permissions. Is it this one I have to download ?
Thanks for your work.
