devfsd not downloaded?
I was busy doing other things for awhile (and have had no time to play
with my SS20), but have run into a couple of issues.
1. When I get ready to install the kernel and modules, it asks for the
kernel files in dists/stable/main/disks-sparc/current/sparc32, but both
the ftp.debian.org directory tree and the CD have the
dists/stable/main/disks-sparc/current/sun4cdm directory - which contains
the 32-bit boot images. The only way I've found around this is to point
it to
http://www.phunnypharm.org/pub/for/sparc-folks/disks-sparc/current,
which has the sparc32 subdirectory that the installer is looking for.
2. When I go to install the base system, whether from ftp.debian.org or
from the CD's, it fails every time on "cannot download devfsd". What
exactly is going on? I'm using 3.0r2 (stable) that I jigdo'd from a
local mirror.
