 I am completely newbie on debian4sparc, and i have a simple question.
 I have to download debian4sparc for a friend of mine, 8cd, and send him
 by mail (not by email, but with mail).
 now i downloaded the iso, but i don't known which is the way to burn them.
 i have only winxp pro and nero burning rom.
 if i launch nero and open the isos and burn them by default it's ok?
 or do i have to set some special options?

 ps: please excuse my english but i'm italian
 

As some of the other replies this is a simple process.  Just tell Nero (or
whatever app you are using) to burn the iso's.  The iso's themselves are
created bootable, so when you burn them, the cd's are bootable.  I did the
same thing on my win2k peecee, and have used them on an IPC and an ss5-110
(linked the ipc to my peecee with scsi cd's).

Curious problem witha Sparc 20

2003-07-12 Thread woodland
Greetings all

I have curious problem with a SparcStation 20
that just got hold of. It seemed to Debian ok
but when it rebooted after the install it gives
me the following message at post:

Level 15 Interrupt
Type help for more information
#0 ok

What does this mean, and how can I fix it?

This system has a 5x86 SunPc Accelerator card in it.
I pulled it out but it made no differences.

This system has two 75 MHZ SuperSparc II CPU cards
in it.

This system has turned out to be a disappointment
so far.

Thanks in advance for any help, pointers, and comments

What version of Debian did you install? Do you know which kernel version
was installed?

Does it not even get to the SILO prompt on reboot? Also, paste your
partition map.
