RE: Debian Etch on SunFire V880



I am using strictly the serial port for this installation.  Everything
gets displayed via the serial port.  However, when I had the console and
serial port connected, something similar to what you described did
happen.

Ok, so I tried to netboot using a 2.6-18 boot.img and attached the
output which I received.  Does anybody know what this means?

I had issues with my v440 until I tried the "daily build" netinstall 
image found here:
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/
Not sure if that will help in your case, but something to try perhaps ?
