Trouble Installing Debian 3.0r1 on a Sunblade 150
Hi,
I'm trying to install Debian 3.0r1 on my shiny new Sunblade 150. However, after
the SILO prompt, I get the following messages:
Loading initial ramdisk...
Remapping the kernel... done.
Booting Linux...
and then the machine hangs. I've tried the ide=nodma kernel command option and
specifying the /boot/sparc64 kernel at the SILO prompt but the same thing happens.
Based on a bootlog I found on the debian web server, the next message I should
be seeing in my boot sequence has something to do with the Sun IEEE boot prom.
I'm wondering if my machine has a really new boot prom version that isn't
supported by the current kernel yet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Geoff
