Re: Sun Blade 100 config
Hi Ben, yes I have tried the string you give below (on a CD burnt at
4x) and I get the Fast MMU Miss error just after it says initializing
RAMdisk prior to loading the kernel. So the only way I can get the
kernel to boot at all is with your netiso image.
I was on a much older version of the OBP and couldn't get anything to
boot, went to the newest, can at least boot now. Does anyone have a
suggestion for what version of the OBP I should be using?
Is there anyway to get Debian installed using you netiso image? I just
says I need to specify a valid root= (at the boot: prompt I have been
typing /sparc64 ide=nodma)
Thanks, Warren.
