utility for mapping oopsen to symbols in SPARC?
I keep hearing about koops (?) on the sparclinux list but can't seem to find it. Am I delusional, a poor speller, or something else entirely? As I can now comfortably reproduce my hme failure, I'd like to track down what exactly is getting trashed. -- Stephen If I claimed I was emporer just cause some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me they'd put me away
IMPORTANT: [boot-floppies] Path name changes
[Crossposted to arch-specific mailing lists FYI. Please followup to

I have checked in, and karlheg is working on additional, changes that will
change the release directory structure. This is in response to #58655, and
problems with kernel version related image naming problems.
There are two changes. The first is to change all disks-{1.20,1.44,2.88}
paths to images-{1.20,1.44,2.88}. This is for mirroring purposes. See above
bug report.
The second is to use kernel versions in the path, instead of tagging them to
the end of image names. Thus, we will have paths like this:
debian/dists/potato/main/disks-${arch}/current/images-${size}/${kernelversion}[/${flavor_or_subarch}]/rescue.bin
instead of
debian/dists/potato/main/disks-${arch}/current/images-${size}/[${flavor}/]rescue-${kernelversion}[-${flavor}].bin
we've discussed this a bit on irc, i realize these are fairly drastic
changes, but we think they are necessary for potato boot disks to work right.
I've filed a release-critical bug against debian-cd as it will be affect by
these changes. If you know of other packages that may be affected, please
change/file RC bugs against them.
I've crossposted this to all port-related mailing lists because I want to
make sure these changes are ok with all non-i386 architectures (what we've
tested these on so far). In particular, this needs to deal with subarchs as
well.

Re: SS5/170 hanging with 2.2.14 kernel
I get no opps, but the machine will not respond to anything including
Stop-A. Did anything significant change between .13 .14 for
sparc32? Is there anything I should enable to help provide kernel
dumps?
Not responding to Stop-A is unusual. But there's an easy way on
the SS5/170 : the TurboSPARC chip is buggy, and there's a code
sequence that lock up the CPU... and gcc _can_ generate
thay code sequence ! It happens on Solaris, anyway...
try compiling:
#
int
main(int argc, char** argv)
{
white(1)
;
}
#
use gcc -O1 (or -O2, can't remember), and lockup your SS5/170... :-(
_maybe_ that's what you are seeing, if it happens only on the 5/170.

Automounter logging
Hi! Can someone help me with reducing the imense logging of automount in the logfiles?! It like I have a full debug mode running at the moment and I didn't found anything that would cut that down. -- IVV Geowissenschaften Tel.: +49 (251) 83-30014 Fax.: +49 (251) 83-39763
Want some info on what SparcServer1000 is
Hi, I have been building a cluster with lots of machines mixed together, almost just for fun, and been installing Slink on SparcStation 5/10/20 SparcIPX SparcClassic via RARP/TFTP/nfs. However, I have 3 machines which claim to be SparcServer1000 (and big). They don't seem to want to boot on SUN4M or SUN4C. Does anyone have any clue as to what these are and what they want (for the boot image)? I tore it apart, and I think they have SuperSparc. It *seems* as if it is dual SuperSparc SMP, and has 4 500Mb drive. It's a shame to trash this machine. Anyone? --- dancer, a.k.a.

Browser for sparc/linux...
hello! is netscape available for such a configuration? I mean native linux binaries... or I should emulate some solaris(a.k.a slowaris) ones?... do I have resonable choices instead of netscape? bye! cristian
