Hi!
I've successfully booted and installed slink (2.1_r4) from Official Debian
binary CD (made it using pseudo-image-kit and burned it myself) on rather
old Sparcstation using "boot cdrom". The ISO image, which I was using
had md5 sum
d71042fc919db5e8ba8fcec0825c3f68 binary-sparc-1.iso
and size 572637184.
