I see, thanks for the clarification. I'll now try to get this installed on my T1000.

libklibc and klibc-utils (both 2.0.4-11+sparc64.1) from "unreleased" work like a charm for me on my T1000:

```

```

Fortunately I still had a SATA disk (from V245 and later V445, hence the hostname is still "v245") with an older libklibc installation and working initrd which I could use for the update.

Thanks for fixing klibc.

Cheers,
Frank
