That's helpful. I found that the stock images were not recognized by
the OpenBoot firmware. Not exactly a crash, but neither were they

I've done more exploration.
Someone suggested that the problem is that the CDROM is an IDE master.
When I change the CDROM to a slave, the Netra X1 refuses to recognize
it. In other words, the Netra *requires* that the CDROM be an IDE
master.

Have you tried it as neither a master nor a slave? That really ought to

Yes, I tried every jumper combination.
By the way, do you have an Netra X1?

Not that this is much help, but I've had all kinds of problems getting

That may be your problem right there. If nothing else is on the
controller, it shouldn't be a master.
Yank all the master/slave/cable select jumpers off and give that a shot.

Interesting. I've never had a problem with it on IA32 motherboards.
Is this specific to the Sparc implementation, or have I always been
doing things wrong?

Hi,

I think it is strange, too. I'm not sure that it is a kernel issue.
I'm thinking it is some sort of odd hardware problem. Perhaps,
something triggered by the reboot.

The Netra X1 is an IDE box. There are two IDE controllers and two
