Please test new SILO - problems with CDROM booting may be fixed



Hi,

David Miller has just posted a silo fix, addressing the long-standing problem of it being unable to boot the system from CDROM on a variety of hardware. So if you've got a machine which dies with 'Fast Data Access MMU Miss', or 'FP Disabled', or 'Illegal instruction' while trying to boot
from CDROM, please try the iso image at

http://www.wooyd.org/debian/silo/sparc-mini.iso

It features the patched-up silo, and might work for you. Please report your experiences to the list.

Thanks,

Jurij Smakov                                        jurij@wooyd.org
