Comments/Problems:
 
Silo 1.4.9 does not boot with ext 3 partition !!!!! I do not find this information. I found on www.gentoo.org a forum with idiomatics comments, but I found the solution on www.sparc-boot.org with reflexion.
 
I follow the installation and I saw a screen with a lot of packages to install. I have a problem with memory. My system is full. __Alloc_page 0-order allocation failure
I reboot and I continue the installation. With free -m I saw a great difference.
 
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
      and ideas you had during the initial install.>
I dont not like a partitioner I prefer fdisk on install like potato for m68k
 
 
Install logs and other status info is available in /var/log/debian-installer/.
 
None
 
 
Now I try to download an emulator for Dos.
Do you know If a Sbus SunPc Accelerator is recognized by Debian ?
 
Many Thanks for your project.
