I got pissed and decided to reinstall debian in that IPX. I
make a testing (I assume the order is stable->testing->unstable,
right? I still get confused in that) boot cd using jigdo. When I
tried to feed my IPX with it, it would hang during the boot
process. So, I made a 3.00r4 stable/woody boot cd and was able to
install debian. So, I then started looking for a new kernel, just
to see if I could go to 2.4 in woody. It seems the only available
images are for the ultra series. Lovely.
Hi Mauricio,
If I remember correctly, IPX is sun4c architecture. Sarge (testing)
installer formally supports it, but I haven't seen any reports from
somebody trying to install on sun4c for a long time. So, if you
would be willing to try the latest pre-release image(s) from [0] and
submit a detailed installation report [1] afterwards, that would be
very valuable.
