Says something like "could not load Sun Package" or something like that.
Don't have on hand right now. "Never works" means that: a) I've never
used floppies to install either Linux or Solaris on a Sun; b) I may be
wrong, but I don't think you can even *do* that on Solaris; c) all
floppy drives I've ever seen on a Sun (especially 32-bit Sun's) are
so broken from disuse as to be totally worthless. :-)
