bootfloppies for sparc 1+
I am wondering if the newer bootfloppies for sparc has been released or not.. I have the ones when slink was released and wondering if there are newer ones yet... I'm also still having trouble trying to rid the old SunOS from my sparc 1+ drive as when I need to shutdown linux it falls into a loop with the SunOS... would I be better off if I just formatted(clean off the drive) and start over from scratch... I run a sparc 1+ (sun4c) and hope it will work better than it is now... the SunOS is on the sd(0,0,0) and I had to start the linux(slink) at sd(0,1,0) and just seems to be a big pain... the above are the way the Sun see's the Drive, and linux seems to see the Drives as sda and sdb... hope someone has a solution thanks Harold

New beta release is sitting in ftp://lix.polytechnique.fr/pub/Linux/debian/sparc/exp/disks-sparc/current It is 2.2.7 based kernel but it has a real problem with default keymap. Keyboard is almost unsuable until you will have installed a keymap. Hopefully, the right key acts as enter, so hitting it several times will select the sun qwerty keymap then load it :) I'm waiting for a real stable kernel (2.2.9? 10? 11?) to upload a new one.
