Dennis,

Many ways to accomplish this goal, just showing what works on my end. In any event, successfully installed Debian 12 sparc64 via NFS as well. So USB and NFS based Debian12 sparc64 ISO installs all work on my end. Hope the following step-by-step will help.


I will give this a try tomorrow. I did try to use the SP to fetch the
Solaris 11.4 ISO image over NFS but that failed entirely. I suspect that
the SP wants NFSv4.1 and I generally just live with v3.


*NOTE:

This is a temp demonstration, I am not concerned about security for this quick example.  You can re-enable the firewall or revert any changes on your nfs server system, after the Debian 12 sparc64 installation is finished.  Doing so to rule out any potential firewall related issues between ILOM and NFS.

Section A:  on NFS Server: In my case, this is manjaro x86-64


I have a massive FreeBSD server with a pile of ZFS based storage.
Loads of 16T and 20T seagate disks in mirrors etc etc.

1) Ensure nfs-server related package is installed for your linux system.


Yes .. I have all of that on FreeBSD natively.

If I can get to GRUB tomorrow that will be a very fine day indeed.
