Hello, Thanks for the help with "Yeee, can't determine your architecture type", the right kernel from Glaurung's site did the trick.
I was able to boot using bootp/dhcpd once. It was beautiful. The SGI penguin smiled upon me, but the last few messages were: Freeing unused kernel memory: 276K freed Warning:unable to open an initial console kernel panic:no init found. Try passing init= option to the kernel Any ideas on how to remedy would be great? Unfortunately now a new problem that's preventing me from trying to reproduce the above kernel panic. When I follow the steps that gave me the above error, I don't get nearly as far. An error is returned at the PROM prompt after I type "bootp():" -- the error is: Setting $netaddr to 192.168.1.128 (from server( Obtaining from server Unable to execute bootp()":: not enough space I've tried unsetenv on all the variables tha I set, but it doesn't help, nor does rebooting the machine. I don't want to smack of desperateness, but if anyone could help me get back to the kernel panic or beyond I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks much, pK. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.yahoo.com
