Did it in the past several time's. Google searching on Debian Sparc Netboot installs I found a blog article. Think it covers your needs. http://www.de-brauwer.be/docs/debian_on_sun.html The stable netboot image is available in the repo. http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/stable/main/installer-sparc/current/images/netboot/ Thanks, Frans van Berckel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
