Unless I'm doing something horribly wrong, the root.bin doesn't fit on a floppy. I just got a castoff sparc20, so I got
...debian/dists/woody/main/disks-sparc/3.0.13-2001-08-28/images-1.44/root.bin and the narrow rescue.bin. The rescue disk boots the kernel without trouble, but I get (on an i386 debian machine) % sudo dd if=root.bin of=/dev/fd0 bs=1024 Password: dd: writing `/dev/fd0': No space left on device 1441+0 records in 1440+0 records out I assume that sun disks aren't a weird format, since the rescue disk worked. Am I just doing something stupid because I haven't tried debian-sparc before, or is this a bug (and what package should it be bug reported against, if it is?) I could burn a CD, but I have no idea how to make a sparc-bootable CD image, and there don't seem to be (?) any woody sparc images pre-made. thanks, - M -- Mark "Monty" Montague | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | I don't do Windows(tm) main(){printf("I am self-aware\\n");} <URL:http://www.gg.caltech.edu/~monty/monty.shtml> X-PGP-Fingerprint: E4 EA 6D B1 82 46 DB A1 B0 FF 60 B9 F9 5D 5C F7
