Installation problem on netra t1
Hello,
I am trying to install debian potato from the official CD for sparc on
a netra t1 105:
Netra t1 (UltraSPARC-IIi 440MHz), No Keyboard
OpenBoot 3.10.25 ME, 1024 MB memory installed, Serial #14302846.
However, the installation program always assumes that I have screen
and keyboard on the t1. I get the following messages:
[lines omitted]
EXT2-fs warning: checktime reached, running e2fsck is recommended
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
init started: BusyBox v0.43 (2001.04.13-16:23+0000) multi-call binary
modprobe: modprobe: Can't open dependencies file
/lib/modules/2.2.19/modules.dep(No such file or directory)
cannot create /dev/tty4: error 19
Bummer, can't open /dev/tty1
The "Bummer"-line repeats over and over. Installation can proceed
up to the reboot. After the reboot init cannot start the next
installation step and the machine hangs. I have tried different
settings of input-device and output-device in OBP, but this made
no difference. The latest boot image (Nov 14) announced by Ben worked
fine, but cannot install the potato CD.
Any hints appreciated,
JSt
