RC1 - successful install on SPARCServer20 (32 bit - 2.4.26SMP)



Totally excellent dudes, RC1 rocks. It needed a bit of thinking about
partitioning to get /boot and the start of / within the first 1G of the
18.2G - the auto partitioner resulted in something that wouldn't boot -
but being offered the correct SMP kernel by default was totally awesome
:)

Now downloading the best part of 450M of new packages to get the desktop
installed.  Since I have a spare 18G drive in the machine, I may yet run
this machine as a show demo machine in October - one drive with Etch,
one drive with Sarge :)

As you may have noticed from other posts, I've had problems with aboot -
all help with silo/OpenPROM also gratefully received - I currently have to type
in a long string because it appears that the SCSI disks are
automagically reversed post install???  This is not new - I've had to do
this since Woody.
