Recently I bought an Ultra10 and now I'm trying to install Sarge with
the latest (july 12th) net install
(http://cdimage.debian.org/pub/cdimage-testing/sarge_d-i/sparc/current/).
Installation completes just fine, but when it reboots I cannot boot:
Bad magic number in disk label
Can't open disk label package
Then it starts trying to boot from network, which does not succeed,
because I don't have that setup.
Booting from CD and then using 'rescue root=/dev/hda2' starts booting,
but then upon initializing disk and partition table it expects an SCSI
device:
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda2" or 03:02
Please append a correct "root=" boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 03:02
Press L1-A to return to the boot prom
Can someone please tell me if IDE on an Ultra10 is supported at all?
And if so, can someone please give a lead (link to how to) or anything
else on how to proceed from here?
I really like to use Debian instead SuSe which was installed
successfully on this machine.
Specs:
Sun Ultra10 UltraSPARC-IIi 440MHz
256MB
20GB IDE HD
Thanks in advance.
