Actually, this installer has a couple of other problems. It was unable to properly finish the base install because some packages, namely `dash', `cramfsprogs' and `initrd-tools', could not be authenticated. I installed them by hand using `apt-install -y --force-yes' but then, for some reason, it was unable to install SILO. I finally went on with the latest Sarge installer, with a 2.4 kernel, and everything went fine: ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-sparc/20050305/images/sparc32/netboot/boot.img MD5: 87517ffdb910a83c848f4c9b6f75cc39 Thanks, Ludovic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
