Re: cdrom boot/install problems with Woody on SunBlade100
Hi Ben,
I appreciate your help with this, but I'm still not able to boot my
system. Am I missing a key step anywhere?
I downloaded the iso image you directed me to, and am booting from it. At
the "boot:" prompt I have tried "/sparc64 initrd=/root.bin" both with and
without the "ide=nodma" appendage. Either way, I'm getting the
Loading initial ramdisk...
