Okay, I moved a floppy drive from the SS2 to the SS10 and the SS10
booted. The SS2 does not boot with the same disk drive.

Hello,
I was running woody for about four weeks on an ultra10 till I messed
upped the system. So I had to install woody again.
The new installation ended in a horror story:

Installing woody directly does not work. So I installed potato then

Hey, all.
Thanks for all the help getting my SS10 booting from HD. Works like a
charm.
I've decided to go all out and get woody on there. However, it doesn't
appear that Xsun has been upgraded to 4.0.2 like most of the other X
apps. Is this gonna throw me for a big ugly loop?

AFAIK, there's no such thing as Xsun 4.0.2. The new server

Guess I'll wait for now.
The potato-woody dist-upgrade went mostly fine. Apart from setting up XF4
it was a breeze. (kudos to all!)

In order to further my understanding of my place in the world (that is, ask
silly questions, see what happens), I feel the need to ask this (from
blissful ignorance, so be gentle).
Let us imagine an operating system that is built from a whole lot of
different modules that

This is what's known as bad, non-portable coding. You see, on different
architectures, things are, well, different. We have big and
caveats with reiserfs ?
Yeah, it does not work on sparc (only works on i386, and maybe alpha by
now).
Well, reiserfs, iptables and a better vm/mm were my hopes with 2.4.x.

A few, but you don't need kernel 2.4.x to run woody.

Specifically:
- Are there any issues with 2.4.x on sun4m ?

- How about XF4.0.2 with a cgsix ?
Also, what's the status of the installer package in woody ?
