I went ahead and downloaded a full CD ROM image, and now when I boot that I get 
the same error that I got when booting with the install floppies.

"Bad magic number in disk label."

I see that a lot of people have had this problem, but I can find no information 
about fixing it. Help?

Subject: Sparc netinstall CD image?


I've been trying to find a Debian Sparc netinstall image to use to get Debian 
installed on my Sparcstation 20. I did a tftp install on my Sparc IPX once, and 
I have no desire to go through that again.

I grabbed sparc-mini.iso from 
http://auric.debian.org/~bcollins/disks-sparc/current/ and burned it. When I 
boot the ss20 with that, the system boots, I see the SILO prompt, it tells me 
to hit enter to start the Debian install. I do that, and it starts to 
uncompress the image, then says something about a memory test, and the whole 
system reboots back to the openboot prompt. I can't seem to get past that 
point. Any suggestions, anyone? Thanks :)
