Debian's install CD can't boot up system under Sun Sparc platform
I can't boot up from Debian's install CD and my hardware is Sun Fire V100
sparc.
I have tried many verisons of Debian's install CD, include
debian-31r3-sparc-binary-1.iso,debian-31r3-sparc-businesscard.iso,debian-31r3-sparc-netinst.iso,
I also tried previous version, but failed.
I have checked all the MD5SUM after download the iso. All the iso are OK.
But when I boot up from CD-ROM, I got the following error messages.
ok show-disks
a) /pci@1f,0/ide@d/cdrom
b) /pci@1f,0/ide@d/disk
c) /pci@1f,0/isa@7/SUNW,lomh@0,8010
ok boot cdrom
Sun Fire V100 (UltraSPARC-IIe 548MHz), No Keyboard
OpenBoot 4.0, 512 MB memory installed, Serial #********.
Ethernet address *********, Host ID: ********.
Executing last command: boot cdrom
Boot device: /pci@1f,0/ide@d/cdrom@3,0:f File and args:
Can't read disk label.
Can't open disk label package
Evaluating: boot cdrom
After that, system boot from harddisk.
I always use solaris9 on this server and several months ago I successfully
installed Gentoo on my sparc server.
I'm really a newbie in Debian. I have searched google but didn't get the
answer.
Any help/enlightenment would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
