One other thing. I've heard that the performance of Ultrasparc Linux
is not expected to be as good as Solaris because user-mode Sparc
binaries run in a 32 bit mode. How do you feel about how well Linux
runs on the Ultrasparc?

That's helpful. I found that the stock images were not recognized by
the OpenBoot firmware. Not exactly a crash, but neither were they

Yes, I tried every jumper combination.
By the way, do you have an Netra X1?

Someone suggested that the problem is that the CDROM is an IDE master.
When I change the CDROM to a slave, the Netra X1 refuses to recognize
it. In other words, the Netra *requires* that the CDROM be an IDE
master.

Nope, it's not a Sparc thing, it's an IDE thing. Maybe it depends on

Is this specific to the Sparc implementation, or have I always been

That may be your problem right there. If nothing else is on the
controller, it shouldn't be a master.
Yank all the master/slave/cable select jumpers off and give that a shot.

The CDROM is the master on the second controller. There is nothing

The Netra X1 is an IDE box. There are two IDE controllers and two
drives. I pulled one of them and installed an IDE CDROM.
Now, I'm suspicious of the CDRO

I've performed the install several times without producing a

The system appears to install everything correctly, but once I boot to
the hard drive to finish the setup, there appear some mysterious
errors.
