Re: Sparc5 woody!



Qapla'!!

> install rarpd and add an entry in /etc/ethers for your sparc5

This turned out to be the key piece of advice, so thanks Andrew!

Disappointing in some ways, 'cause I found lots of documentation that seemed to indicate DHCP was enough (and yes, I do know that DHCP != RARP). But that's neither here nor there...when I finally saw the kernel booting up I was one happy puppy, let me tell you!

There was a minor gafuffle with configuring SILO, but after a little playing around I finally got the SILO prompt and am running the post-install setup as I write.

Many thanks to all of you for your help the last couple of days! ../Taras (Satisfied Customer)
