Re: Linux/SPARC Kernel



Hey Eric,

After doing _exactly_ what you did I broke down and installed Slink,
luckily I have two of these beasts so I still have teh Sol 2.5.1 backup.
Anyway, I just setup the basic build enviornment so I can make a NFSROOT
kernel =]  You  will be the first to know when I have a diskless Tadpole
3GX setup going ...
