Re: Debian on SparcClassic



Hi Ben, hi @ll,

thanx for this great tip! It did work fine for booting.
But in the end i had to open my scsi-tower, attached to the SparcClassic
Station, because after booting i did not succeed in telling Debian to use
the second device for installing kernel modules and so on... :-( So I had to
'umount' the first dirve the hardest (by pulling out the cableing) way. I
did change the scsi ids before but it did not help at all.

Now there is one more Potato in my small net @home. A slow one but it is a
SparcClassic *happy*

Happy Sunday,
Chris
