Hi everyone,

this is my first post to this list so please be kind with me... :-)

I tried to install Debian sparc 7.4.0 in a Solaris LDOM.
Because i am behind a corporate firewall the network install was no 
option.

When i tried to mount the cdrom after modprobing sunvdc i recognize in 
dmesg
that all the iso-images Solaris exports as virtualized CD/DVD drives are 
_exactly_
640MB even if its a DVD.iso. With the hard disk images exported as 
virtualized
HDDs this is not the case.

So my workaround was to copy all the iso image contents on a HDD image and
install from there.

1. Can anybody confirm this (or is this even a known bug? i didnt find 
anything on Google though).
2. If it is a Bug, where is the appropriate location to raise it?

Thanks in advance,

Claas Ziemke

p.s. i can post dmesg output etc. of-course, just didnt want to spam the 
list with my first post :-)
