RE: 2.4 boot disk

[Nicolas WILL]

hmmm... I have a 2-3 month old CD (jigdo image) that defaults to 2.2.20,
with no option for a bf24.

I downloaded the latest floppy images (3.0r1a) an couple of days ago and
they default to 2.2.20 as well, no bf24 as far as I could see.

I just finished and burned the jigdo of the 3.0r1 CD. I looked at the
vmlinux contained in /boot/sparc32.gz. I did text search for 2.4 in that
file. Nothing. A search on 2.2 returned plenty of 2.2.20.

The silo.conf only contains references to that /boot/sparc32.gz for sun4cdm
arch.

The sun4u 64bit kernel may well be 2.4.18.

I'll check on the Sun boxes when I arrive home this evening.

I have an SS5-110 and an SMP SS20 (Ross ROM 2.25), both sun4m.

Thanks for answering!

Yeah, dselect is still around.  C'mon, the guy's new to Debian.  You 
wouldn't want him to miss out on a classic, wouldya? :)

Eh, I'm not sure we can help very much with this.

Is there something wrong?

I just wanted to report that I couldn't use the smp kernel, image too big... 

UP works though :-)

I downloaded debian 3.0r0 ISO images about 3 weeks ago and they
defaulted to 2.4.something, at least on my ultra 1. perhaps if
you have a 32bit system it may try to use 2.2.x I'm not sure,
SILO wouldn't let me load a 32bit kernel even when I tried(didn't
care either way personally). or maybe it did but the kernel
wouldn't boot.

dselect


Also how does one log in as root?
 

On the console?  Enter "root" as the account name, then enter the root 
password.

new apt

[Inhabitant of Zion]

Hi

Just wondering if there was a testing tree where one could post requests for 
apt to be configured for Debian-Sparc.

Only I would like a newer version of Sylpheed or better still Ximian Evolution.

2.4 boot disk

[Nicolas WILL]

Hi,

Is there a woody 3.0rx installation boot CD or floppy with a 2.4 kernel
(like the bf24 option on the Intel port)?

I'm trying to setup boxes with RAID1 and LVM.

Such a boot disk would simplify the setup process so much...

Re: Next question

[Inhabitant of Zion]

Hi

Yes I manged to get it sorted. I had to go down to a depth of 8 to get
the resolution I wanted but the machine is mainly going to be a mail
server so I am not too bothered about fancy looking graphics.

BTW on another note is there a specific place that you can go to find
alist of all the apt packages that are currently available under Debain
Sparc?

Also how does one log in as root?

Xconfigurator seems to be a Redhat thing. What is the Debian equivalent?
