serial console problem
[Please cc me, I'm not on the list] I have a headless Netra iServer (Sparc 20) which I tried to upgrade to potato. Now whenever I try to boot to multiuser mode (single-user is fine) it says: modprobe: can't locate module char-major-4 about 20 times followed by: INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes INIT: Id "3" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes INIT: Id "4" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes INIT: Id "5" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes INIT: Id "2" respawni INIT: Id "6" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel char-major-4 is aliased to serial I thought maybe the stock kernel-image (2.2.9) might not have serial console support so I compiled my own but still no dice. Can anyone help? Other relevant packages are sysvinit 2.76-4 base-files 2.1.6 libc6 2.1.1.9 modconf0.2.26 modutils 2.1.121-22 -- Jaldhar H. Vyas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
/etc/init.d/network
Hi all, where does the file /etc/init.d/network derive (come) from? It definitely IS installed on my system, but I didn't find it neither using # dpkg -S "*network*" nor it is in the base system (base2_1.tgz). I need to set up another system by hand and I want to make this correctly... Thanks for help! :-) -- cya ANDI
Ultra 5 ok (+/-) cont
Hi all, I forgot to talk about a problem. I cant su in this machine for some problem. And ssh does not work for root? So, every time I have to enter as root, I have to go to console and login as root! What is wrong? Thanks, Paulo Henrique
Ultra 5 ok (+/-)
Hi all, thanks to everyone (Steve, Adam, Edmund), the problem with my Ultra5 is the kernel (2.2.1) and the xserver. I'm typing from it now, but has some problems yet. Window Maker gives me an error about libwraster lib, icewm themes doesnt work (they segfault icewm), enlightenment does not enter too. I'm going to install nis now. Thanks again, Paulo Henrique
Setting the hardware clock
Hi, How do I set the hardware clock on my IPX? I've got the local time set, but the hardware is reporting a time in 1969 after I replaced the NVRAM. I don't yet have an network or internet connection set up on the box so NTP doesn't help. Do I need to do it from OpenBoot or is there a Unix command I'm missing? cheers ~~ simon

And anyway how do I get a copy from xia01 ? :O I don't upload it because it is hacked to always give me no errors, not really done right :) Ben

You'll need the egcs64 compiler from sparc, and preferrably the binutils from potato. Just make sure when you run make commands in the kernel source tree to add "ARCH=sparc64" to the command line.

I've been using a hacked version on the build server. You can either copy the libfakeroot.so from xia01 or just build as root. Ben
Building 64bit Kernel
Hello everybody, is it possible to build a 64bit kernel on a 32bit sparc (sparctation 10)?? If it is possible, what compiler do I need? Regards, Horst
