Actually, this installer has a couple of other problems. It was unable to properly finish the base install because some packages, namely `dash', `cramfsprogs' and `initrd-tools', could not be authenticated. I installed them by hand using `apt-install -y --force-yes' but then, for some reason, it was unable to install SILO. I finally went on with the latest Sarge installer, with a 2.4 kernel, and everything went fine: ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/sarge/main/installer-sparc/20050305/images/sparc32/netboot/boot.img MD5: 87517ffdb910a83c848f4c9b6f75cc39 Thanks, Ludovic. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

It is documented on [1] and this should be fixed as soon as a new version of apt makes it into testing. [1] http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstallerToday pgpnzkJEn3tqQ.pgp Description: PGP signature

Installing Audio on Ultra 5 10 ?
Any chance someone provide comprehensive step by step instructions how to setup audio on Ultra 5 or 10. I have Ultra 10 and just installed Debian on it. I managed to make X working, but my sound card is still mute. Any suggestions? Thanks, Tomo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I've just set it up for my U10 :-) I tried before, but either failed to do it the obvious way or it did not work with earlier kernels... Anyway, it works great now using the latest 2.6.15 kernel. My U10 has the built in SUNW,CS4231 sound system. Instructions (as root): - aptitude install alsa-base alsa-utils - alsaconf - press enter a few times Done :-) pgp85WsNsycHZ.pgp Description: PGP signature

Casper Here is my quick'n'dirty HOWTO for the cs4231 audio (2.4.x kernel): 1) Make sure the soundcore module isn't loaded! Otherwise you will get this error: /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/drivers/sbus/audio/audio.o: init_module: Input/output error Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters. You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/drivers/sbus/audio/audio.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/drivers/sbus/audio/audio.o failed /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/drivers/sbus/audio/audio.o: insmod cs4231 failed 2) If soundcore is loaded /sbin/rmmod soundcore 3) After that: /sbin/modprobe cs4231 4) To automatically load the cs4231 module, modify /etc/modules. In case you are using the 2.6.x kernel, follow the instructions given by Frans Pop. The corresponding module is snd-sun-cs4231 Best regards, Attila -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
