Does anyone have an install image?

2003-01-20 Thread Hobbs, Richard
Hello,

I have a machine of the following spec, onto which i would like to install
Debian for SPARC:

 - Ultra 1 Creator
 - 1x 167MHz CPU
 - 192M RAM
 - 2GB HDD

Is 2GB enough for SPARC debian? i assume it is, if i'm careful. I have
searched around trying to find install files, or disk images, or
something, but i cannot find anything. How can i install it?

If someone has a CD image, from which i can boot my Ultra 1 into the
debian installation, that would be *incredibly* useful. i have broadband
internet, so a basic boot image, from which i can download the rest would
be fine.

Also, is there a port of apt onto SPARC also? this would be very useful.

Thanks,
Richard.

 it hasn't been a pressing issue.
 
Thanks. If you need to test something let me know. BTW, are there any 
2.2.23 kernel deb pkg? source or binary?

You don't have to be too careful.  There's plenty of space on the 2GB
Ultra 1 I have as a server.  (The sparc and x86 ports are essentially
the same.)

Look under www.uk.debian.org.

corrupt .deb on ftp site

2003-01-20 Thread Kenneth D. Weinert
I'm attempting to install debian on a SPARCstation 2. It goes will
until the following message:

http://ftp.us.debian.org:80/debian/pool/main/f/fdutils/fdutils_5.3.7_sparc.deb
was corrupt.

I've tried a couple of times now with no joy.

I'd appreciate any advice you could send my way.

 See how the whole disk partiton (and it has to be partiton 3) covers the
 whole disk? Just create a new disk label. Then create your root and swap
 partitions.
