Comments/Problems:
<Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments
and ideas you had during the initial install.>
After loading the kernel the system hangs complaining about an unimplemented
system call.
The fllowing is the last bit of output:
RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
Freeing initrd memory: 1242k freed
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
Mounted devfs on /dev
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
Trying to move old root to /initrd ... okay
Mounted devfs on /dev
Freeing unused kernel memory: 132k freed
Setting up filesystem, please wait ...
busybox[8]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 188
busybox[9]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 188
busybox[11]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 188
busybox[12]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 188
init[10]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 188
busybox[13]: Unimplemented SPARC system call 188
Thats about it, now it just hangs.
Going to console 2 (Alt-F2) however still gives me the following:
Please press Enter to activate this console.
BusyBox v1.00-pre8 (Debian 20040306-1) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
~ #
This still seems to work, I did the uname -a here etc.
Going back to the first console doesn't work anymore though.
The last thing I could think of which might be helpful is a `ps':
1 root 472 S init
2 root SW [keventd]
3 root SWN [ksoftirqd_CPU0]
4 root SW [kswapd]
5 root SW [bdflush]
6 root SW [kupdateed]
42 root 464 S /sbin/syslogd -m 0 -O /var/log/syslog
45 root 464 S /sbin/klogd -c 2
55 root 488 S /bin/sh /sbin/debian-installer
56 root 328 S /usr/bin/tail -f /var/log/messages
57 root 332 S /usr/bin/tail -f /var/log/syslog
58 root 528 S /bin/sh
151 root 1736 S /usr/bin/bterm -f /unifont.bfg -l C.UTF-8 /sbin/di-main-menu
152 root 3084 S /usr/share/debconf/frontend -o d-i /usr/bin/main-menu
153 root 536 S /usr/bin/main-menu
159 root 432 S udpkg --configure languagechooser
160 root 440 S /bin/sh -e /var/lib/dpkg/info/languagechooser.postinst configure
169 root 488 S /bin/sh -e /usr/bi/languagechooser
185 root 568 R ps -ef
Also from /var/log/syslog (only the warnings, i'm getting lazy):
user.warn main-menu[153]: WARNING **: package libc6 doesn't exist
user.warn main-menu[153]: WARNING **: package libiw27 doesn't exist
user.warn main-menu[153: WARNING **: package libc-udeb doesn't exist
user.warn main-menu[153]: WARNING **: Unable to set title for cdebconf-udeb.
user.debug frontend: Setting debconf/language to en
This last happens withouth me ever seeing any chooser. After this only a
message from init appears saying it started /bin/sh on /dev/vc/2
That's it, hope it helps
cheers
