Re: Ben Collins' tftpboot.img and SunFire V880
It was suggest I hook up the serial console, and I have done so again,
this time a bit more thoroughly, and I did NOT use diag mode on the
machine. Also, I tried removing the PGX64 card in accordance with
recent observations (doing so made no difference in my case whatsoever).
The following is using the small tftp boot image (tftpboot-small.img) that
Ben Collins provided.
Anyway, here's the log of the results. (I edited out the string of
counter values as it loaded the kernel, for the reader's sake.)
