Ok, I am trying to put linux in my SS1+. So, I downloaded
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-sparc/current/sun4cdm/tftpboot.img
to my netbsd box, which I am using as rarpd/tftpd server. I
configured the SS1+ to boot from le(). This is what happens:

ok
FYI, I have no problems installing netbsd in this same machine.
Where am I screwing things up?
Incidentally, 307c00 = 3177472 in decimal, which is somewhat
larger than the size of the said file in both the debian ftp site:
-rw-rw-r-- 1 1176 1176 3161568 May 18 2002 tftpboot.img
and in my HD:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3161568 May 18 2002 tftpboot-debian.img
Would that be related to my problem? I ask because I was reading in
the archive that someone had a similar situation
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/1999/debian-sparc-199901/msg00105.html),
though the difference is that the file did came truncated where in my
case, the file is being reported as larger than what it was supposed
to be. :P
