Comments/Problems:

I tried to boot off the CD to make a clean Debian Sarge install on a
sparcstation with an openbsd install on it.

SILO boot ok, kernel started to boot then screen started printing the following
8 lines of error messages :

attempt to access beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0,want 4097, limit=4096
attempt to access beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0,want 4098, limit=4096
attempt to access beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0,want 4099, limit=4096
attempt to access beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0,want 4100, limit=4096

I wasn't able to go any further.
