I just installed using this (March 22) netinst iso on my Ultra 5 
and SILO booted successfully.

http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/sparc/iso-cd/

It uses kernel 2.6.32-3-sparc64.

I guess my previous response about warm booting after Solaris 10 
was a red herring.

2010-03-31 Thread M. S
Hello,

i have a Sun Ultra 10, 440mhz UltraSparc IIi CPU + 1gb Ram + 60gb IDE-HDD.

After the Install via Netboot, i type boot disk, and i became this Error:


Booting with command: boot disk
Boot device: disk
Fast Data Access MMU MISS

Solaris 10 works fine, i think the Hardware is okay, but i dont know how i

Is that a cold boot to Debian-sparc or a warm reboot after running
Solaris 10?

Debian-sparc boots fine on my Ultra 5 and 10, but that's all I have
on them and it has been quite a while since installed it.

I have both Debian-sparc and Solaris 10 on an Ultra 60 and get a
Memory Address not Aligned error if I try to reboot to Debian after
running Solaris. It boots fine if I power-off and boot cold.

Howard E.

Debian-sparc boots fine on my Ultra 5 and 10, but that's all I have
on them and it has been quite a while since installed it.


I have used Debian on my Ultra 1, and it installed fine using a 2.4 kernel, 
but when the 2.6 kernels came out, my machine would not run on them.  I had 
to compile a custom kernel to upgrade to 2.6.


I don't know if the stock 2.6 kernels have been fixed - it was a long time 
ago (5 years?) that I first installed my machine, and I'm not sure when I 
updated to 2.6.
