Hi, I've attempted to install Debian on a SunFire T1000 system. The problem is that with any "boot.img" from the following I get a kernel panic (console log attached): - netboot_d6r0.img current netboot image from Debian 6.0r0 with linux kernel 2.6.32-29; - netboot_d6~jurij.img unofficial netboot image with linux kernel 2.6.32-30; - netboot_d5r8.img current netboot image from Debian 5.0r8 with linux kernel 2.6.26-26.
Any idea how to fix or pass over this kernel panic? Thanks
