Hi. I have some problems installing 9.2-RC1 on sparc64 via the network
I have a dhcp server, and an NFS server that exports the disc1 ISO.
Relevant portions of dhcpd.conf:
filename "boot/loader";
option root-path "<ip-address-of-nfs-server>:/cdrom";
The boot/loader was copied from the install image. The tftpboot directory is
otherwise empty. (So no loader.conf etc.)
Do you also have 'next-server' in there? I'm buffled how TFTPing
the loader could work without one ...
There is a next-server line; it was in another location in the dhcpd.conf, so I
did not think to copy that, sorry.

U10 are still supported, why should they have been dropped? :)
In fact, the 9.2 images have been tested on a U10 before they were
published. I also found an ISP 1040 card, which works just fine
here.
So this indeed could be a hardware problem causing a PCI access to
fail, which typically causes very strange backtraces like the
incomplete one above.
Ok. I'll take out the pci cards - let's see if I can get it to boot then.
So far, that's expected as you seem to also have copied over the
/etc/fstab from disc1.
Right. I thought I could take a shortcut by just mdconfig-ing the install image
and mounting and exporting that.
Cheers
Michiel
