Sorry, all, about the long pause before responding. I really would like to kick this problem. In the last few days, I have had a chance to look at things a bit more closely. One thing I should say is that I am a total newbie to Sun hardware and OpenBoot, so please keep this in mind. In

BTW, Jeremy, did you do your recompiles on a 2.4 kernel or a 2.6 kernel? I've been trying to avoid 2.6 kernels for several reasons, but if it is NECESSARY for this to work, I might reconsider... It's not neccessary... If you don't use SMP, 2.6 is good for you. Some SCSI systems have

I recently inherited a Sun Ultra 5 from my company which I would like to use as a LAMP server. I downloaded the 13-CD sarge testing distribution (official snapshot 11/07/04) and got the system up and running normally with the Sun keyboard and mouse. I have it connected to a 4-port USB KVM
